A Message from the Town Crier:
In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the seminal work Marauding with Monsters, Bastion Publishing House and Huzzah Entertainment are pleased to announce for the first time ever the complete Thornheart Papers bound together in one collector's edition. Relive the thrilling exploits of the Adventurer Extraordinaire himself, the incomparable Nigel Thornheart, in five adventures guaranteed to exhilarate the young and old alike. In Marching with Marines revisit the origin of a legend, as the favored son of the Empire fights for king and country, sailing the world with the Imperial Marines, making waves on battlefields and boudoirs alike with his timeless wit and boundless heroism. In Battling with Brigands follow Nigel Thornheart as he braves the dangers of Krakenhal, contending with the infamous pirates of Kraken Society and faces his greatest test of endurance with the lustrous pirate queen. In Marauding with Monsters witness the foundation and triumphs of the Mighty Thornhearts as Nigel cows a rampaging giant, woos a spirited paladin, rescues a helpless child, saves the continent from the machinations of the Death Knight, and forges a bond that would last a lifetime...with Little Nigel the cannon. In Riding with Reclaimers witness as Nigel Thornheart finally arrives in Bastion and leads the Mighty Thornhearts and the Reclaimers into the Mist to stunning victory after victory while barely breaking a sweat, showing the beasts of the frontier (and any comely maid along the way) the strength of his steel. In Dueling with Devils set out on the final adventure of the Mighty Thornhearts as the Adventurer Extraordinaire perseveres over the betrayal of a lover, the death of his compatriots, and battles the denizens of hell itself in a fitting conclusion to the defining saga of our generation. Enjoy this collection for the first time ever in one volume, now complete with new illustrations from the late Maximillian Cavendish (after a lengthy legal battle in with the Cavendish Estate that was settled out of court, wherein Nigel Thornheart accepts no wrongdoing or liability and admits to no misconduct in the untimely death) that any true Thorn Hearty would be incomplete without. Get this limited edition printing before it is lost to the mists forever...or at least until a 6th book is released and we repackage it in a 30th anniversary collection.
