Author of Players Book to Glorantha

[Osentalka]

Hello

i have read that the Glorantha book series so far is written by Robin D. Laws (Glorantha book itself), Jeff Kyer (Cult books) and Aaron Dembski-Bowden (Magic, Clanking City, Trolls), but who is the author of the "Players Guide to Glorantha"?

Cheers

I am pretty sure it is Bryan Steele (Mongoose Steele on these boards), one of the Mongoose house writers.

He wrote Rune of Chaos and Legendary Heroes I think, possibly some of the other books. To the best of my knowledge it will be his first Gloranthan work.

And it has Ducks.

Quack.

EDIT: Come to think of it I think he wrote Monsters too. I am away for the holiday and don't have my books with me.

No author is mentioned in Monsters. Richard Ford and Greg Lynch are mentioned as Developers, maybe that is the same?

SGL.

Fordy and Greg Lynch did Monsters, I believe. The Developer credit instead of an Author one is beyond my scant knowledge of these things m'afraid.

Bry did indeed do the Player's Guide, yeah.

I did MOST of it, but Nick Robinson did ALOT of sorting and re-patching after I turned it in...

...I'm just as eager to see what might have been changed/omitted/added as you guys!!! I know my Glorantha group will be as well.

You are actually listed as one of the Developers for Legendary Heroes, so hopefully that gives some insight into what credit means.

Oh, yeah, no...I meant that it's odd that a book only has Developers, and no authors. The term must have a meaning beyond my limited experiences of it.

My core book has an author and developers, GtSA has an author and no developers, and everything else I have just has developers, no authors. It is all a mystery to me.

On a side note I didn't realize Kenneth Hite was involved with the game at all until checking the credits again.
