As LA plunges into an occult gang war, mob sorceress Domino Riley must unravel a conspiracy that reaches beyond the magic-soaked mean streets into a world of myth and legend.

Former RPG designer and developer Greg Benage (BLUE PLANET, MIDNIGHT Campaign Setting) makes his fiction debut with MOB RULES, written as Cameron Haley, coming September 1, 2010, from Luna Books.

MOB RULES (320 pp., tbp, $14.95) is an urban fantasy novel of murder and magic, betrayal and redemption set in the supernatural underworld of Los Angeles. Over a ten-year career in the hobby games industry (Biohazard Games, Fantasy Flight Games), Benage wrote and developed dozens of RPG games and supplements, including the ENnie Award-winning MIDNIGHT and DAWNFORGE fantasy campaign settings.

Diana Rowland, author of MARK OF THE DEMON, says of his debut effort, “MOB RULES is exciting and fresh, with a complex and conflicted heroine who grabs your attention and doesn’t let go. This book will make you fall in love with urban fantasy all over again!”

In its starred review of the novel, Publishers Weekly calls MOB RULES a “zippy debut” whose “fast pacing, pungent wit, surprise twists, thoughtful discussions of morality, and escalating, cinematic battles keep the pages turning.”

A ten-year veteran of the hobby games industry, Greg Benage (writing as Cameron Haley) holds down a day job as a senior product manager at a large commercial bank and lives with his wife in Minneapolis. A prequel to MOB RULES, the novella “Retribution,” will be published in October in HARVEST MOON, an anthology with NYT bestselling authors Mercedes Lackey and Michelle Sagara. Benage is hard at work on a sequel, SKELETON CREW, coming in 2011.

I have finally come around and installed another measure against spamming registration on the forum, now when registering users have to fill-in a captcha code and properly reply a "Are you human?" question.

Also I have approved two new downloads: a spreadsheet to calculate population by city/village size and a chart with all midnight languages and their relations.

Thanks go to their authors.

Edit by nifelhein: Dain sprang it so I am opening the doors, the theme is more than ready to be used by everyone and is a complete opposite to the dark theme we are all used to, check the themebox on your left menu or pick theme options on your profile.


Hi,
Just discovered that the theme was available but didn't find any announcement.
Just curious how many people use it , not just because I made this theme a while ago. Well, maybe yes...

I won't be in town for the new year, thought I would drop by and say to everyone how happy I am to have this site still going, this place means a lot to me, even if I don't hang around as much as I used to, in any case, I wish everyone a happy new year, that 2010 comes with good news for both Midnight and us all.

As a minor news item, I got engaged yesterday.
