It is proper chilly today in Chicago. And in my mailbox are some new witchy-themed books.
The Cooked Moon for 5e
I backed this Kickstarter and got the book a couple of weeks ago...or so I thought! My oldest saw it on my desk and has been taking his group through it.
He loved it so much, saying it is the best D&D 5e adventure out in years, that he went out and bought the special edition version.
As it turns out the Special Edition on he grabbed was for D&D 5.5 (labeled 5e|2024) mine is for 5e|2014. The page number is the same, but the pages don't exactly line up. The content is still the same. There are differences, but we have not found them yet.
The book is huge, 632 pages, and gorgeous. It has a bit of everything. A 350-page adventure for levels 1 to 13. New subclasses, new species, new monsters, spells, feats and more. There new mechanics, curses, dark bargins.

It really is top-notch, and kudos to Avantris for getting it out in time for Halloween.
Sickest Witch
Another Kickstarter delivery in time for Halloween.
I only got this one yesterday so I have not had the chance to go through it all yet. But it is a damn attractive book.
It feels like a stripped-down OSR-like game with some other design elements. Looks really fun.
All writing, development, and art was done by Justin Sirois. So it has a solid, united, vision throughout.
Both are great for Halloween fun!
