One of our long time Redemption players, John McNichol has published a novel. http://www.amazon.com/Tripods-Attack-Young-Chesterton-Chronicles/dp/1933184264 (http://www.amazon.com/Tripods-Attack-Young-Chesterton-Chronicles/dp/1933184264)
John sent me a copy of the book early last fall. I was busy and had many other books on my reading list ahead of it. So, it got placed on the bottom of a stack and then forgotten. I just uncovered it last week and began reading. John is my friend and sadly I was reading it so that if he asked about it I could at least say, I read it and offer some polite comments on his work. Well, I certainly underestimated John's talents as a writer by a great deal. This book is wonderful! I will let you read the description at Amazon and reviews there and at other sites.
I wholeheartedly recommend this book. It's a very nice bonus that a friend of mine wrote it. Some of you may have met John when he helped me at the Origins Game Convention in 1998 and 1999. He is a great person and it's a delight to see him having success as a writer. It's the first book in a series and I can't wait for the next installment.

sounds interesting! I might just buy this book... though, the title for the link was odd... Tripods attacking some guy named chesterton?... glad the review cleared it up.
