Nightscape RPG: Red Terrors is quick-start tabletop role-playing game based on David W. Edwards' series of supernatural thrillers. Playing the role of an operative for one of three secret organizations, you explore a decommissioned Russian research laboratory in search of arcane treasures. But rival operatives, ghastly menaces and dangerous artifacts abound. Worst of all, a dreaded blood daimon gestates in a defunct bio-lab waiting for an unwitting operative to set it free to wreck untold havoc. This d20-based storytelling game contains everything you need to create characters, track skills and sanity-levels, engage in combat with extra-dimensional horrors, and emerge victorious--or doom the world to an everlasting nightmare.

The Cold & Actual Sky
by David W. Edwards

This Nightscape novel marks the beginning of the end of everything we know! A research librarian employed by a secret branch of Torvis Industries uncovers the dreadful truth behind Edgar Allan Poe’s The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym. The revelations prompt a nightmare investigation of the famed writer’s death and lead him to question the very nature of humanity.

The oversized paperback will employ a uniquely compelling three-part structure: the first will consist of an annotated version of the Poe story; the second a harrowing mystery; and the third a ‘silent’ comic book about a boy’s trek through an alien forest infesting northern Germany. Due to the unusual formatting requirements of this novel, no ebook versions will be available.
