BioWare Publishing Dragon Age Prequel Novel



Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne [http://www.bioware.com/][/I], a prequel novel that will set up the universe and storyline for the studio's upcoming fantasy RPG.

Penned by David Gaider, who has worked as a scribe on a number of BioWare titles, the novel relates a revenge tale set in the feudal-fantasy Dragon Age [http://dragonage.bioware.com/] world. "When the beloved rebel queen is murdered, her son Maric sets out on a mission of vengeance against the faithless lords who were responsible for his mother's untimely death," BioWare's press release said. "Maric soon becomes the leader of a rebel army hell-bent on retaking Ferelden from the control of a foreign tyrant. With only two true allies by his side, the brash outlaw Loghain and the beautiful warrior maiden Rowan, Maric and his trusted band must outwit spies and traitors as they try to reclaim the stolen throne."

Dragon Age is supposed to be BioWare's follow-up to its Ascension [http://www.bioware.com/games/baldurs_gate/].

The Stolen Throne is probably not the next A Song of Ice and Fire [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Song_of_Ice_and_Fire] or what have you, but BioWare fans wanting to steep themselves in the lore might want to check it out. You can read the entire first chapter of the book over at the Dragon Age site.

Goodness no, I wouldn't even mention this in the same breath as George RR Martin. Just from the summary alone, it sounds awful.
When are they making a ASIF game, that's what I want to know?

I hear ya man. Hell, I just want to know when the next book is gonna be out.

This book might be pretty good. I enjoyed the first Mass Effect novel quite well.
