We promised there would be more good things to come, and here they are!

In time for the twentieth anniversary of their original publication date, Project Aon presents two more PDF releases—Combat Heroes 2: Emerald Enchanter and Scarlet Sorcerer. These books by Joe Dever each contain a solo game and a two-player game. Both books are required for the two-player game.

You are the star pupil of the mighty wizard Silvarion. You helped your master steal the evil Deathlord’s most treasured possession—his Power Crystal. Unluckily, the theft was discovered almost immediately and your master murdered by Deathlord assassins. So where is the Power Crystal now? Can you unravel the cryptic clues left by your wizard master and reach the precious stone before the cruel Deathlord?

Dual adventure
You need: Scarlet Sorcerer, Emerald Enchanter, and a friend!

High above the grasslands and plains of Thorasia, you desperately battle against your arch-rival, for he too seeks the Power Crystal. Skilfully manoeuvring your magical skyship, you strive to shoot him down. But the he is a wily assailant and you’ll need every ounce of your strength to defeat him.

Finding the Power Crystal will not be easy; nor will combating your arch-rival in the skies above Thorasia. Only your own skills and quick wits can lead to your success.

For Sommerlund and the Kai! (And for Thorasian flying machines, too!)

You are Lone Wolf – Kai Grand Master of Sommerlund. Far away to the west lies the peninsula of Ixia. It is an icy, desolate wasteland that for 10,000 years has been the domain of Lord Ixiataaga – Masterlord of the Dead. Here he reigns supreme over a horde of lost souls, an undead populace who are condemned to an eternity in his service.

In The Deathlord of Ixia, you must journey to the forbidden city of Xaagon – the seat of Lord Ixiataaga’s dark power – and confront him in a life-or-death battle which will test your Grand Master abilities to the limit. Will you overcome and defeat this terrifying entity? Or will you fall victim to his undead legions and the terrible new power they wield?

This adventure will be difficult. May Ishir and Kai watch over your quest and grant you the best of luck. You’ll need it.

Thank you for your patience over the past year. More good things to come.

For Sommerlund and the Kai!

Well, it’s been a while since our last announcement. I hope the delay only serves to sweeten the pleasure of this announcement. Last week marked the public inception of Proyecto Aon Español: the Spanish-language counterpart to what we have been doing so far for all you English-speaking fans. They even have the first Spanish Project Aon edition of a book available:

I hope this Fehmarn season (speaking from the standpoint of Northern Magnamund, of course) finds you happy, healthy, and firm in the hope of good things to come.

¡Por Sommerlund y el Kai!

We’ve finally gotten an updated set of Grey Star books ready and out the door. All four have been updated including the addition of the original illustrations for Beyond the Nightmare Gate:

We’re ready to move on to other things like revisiting the already published books for a much needed clean up and new things like the Freeway Warrior series.

P.S. Have no fear: we’re still plugging away at The Deathlord of Ixia.

Greetings,

We’ve just published Lone Wolf Originals, a collection of Joe Dever’s original drawings of maps (inlcuding the never published color map from The Hunger of Sejanoz) and other tidbits such as a 1984 promotional poster for Flight from the Dark and cover illustrations by Brian Williams, Melvyn Grant, and Peter Andrew Jones. This document also contains some of Joe Dever’s notes for The Cauldron of Fear providing a rare insight into his process of creating and publishing these gamebooks.

We hope you enjoy this collection of rare materials.

We’ve just published a collection of the fan-created art that has graced our Project Aon editions at times when we didn’t yet have permission from the illustrators to use their work. We didn’t want this great work to go to waste, so it’s here in one place. Some material was never published to the public.

We’re open to comments and questions. And as always, we hope you enjoy.

For Sommerlund and the Kai!

We’ve published our Action Chart Packs, a collection of the original artwork action charts and patents of order and rank (the scrolls in the front of the books that say “The bearer of this scroll . . .”). This collection draws from all book series: Kai, Magnakai, Grandmaster, New Order, Grey Star, and Freeway Warrior.

http://www.projectaon.org/books.htm?resource=actioncharts#other

These aren’t included in the Project Aon editions of the books for various historical and practical reasons. If we never include these, at least you have access to them here.

We hope you enjoy this latest bit of nostalgia.

For Sommerlund and the Kai!

Greetings,

We have another rare tome for you this week. You may have never even heard of this book. The Skull of Agarash is a graphic novel written by Joe Dever and illustrated by Cyril Julien and Brian Williams. An unexpected Giak attack on the city of Kadan shatters the uneasy peace that reigned following the destruction of Naar’s fell servants, the Darklords.

We hope you enjoy this latest publication.

I would like to take a moment to thank all of those authors and illustrators who have generously made Project Aon possible. We hope that there work lives on. Joe Dever, author of the Lone Wolf gamebooks and editor of this particular book, will be going in for his second surgery next week. We wish him, and all other contributors, health and happiness.

For Sommerlund and the Kai,

We have another treat for you. Most of us have never had a chance to peruse this rare tome of Magnamund Art. The Lone Wolf Poster Painting Book is a collection of seven large posters created by Gary Chalk accompanied by his instructions on how to paint these line drawings. These posters were never published elsewhere.

As always, please enjoy this latest offering, and send us any comments or questions. We’ll do our best to keep your Project Aon experience a pleasant one.
