“Kneel.”
“But it’s wet, Mamma.”
“You’ll know pain if you do not show the vættir respect.”
“Blót is for the gods. I want to offer to Freyja.”
“Careful, child. Land spirits are ev’ry bit as entitled to offerings as the Æsir.”
“I thought you said the vættir are wights.”
“Kneel. I’ll not say it again.”

RIFT’s bestiary is a useful bonus. Inspired by the Peterson’s Field Guide, it’s meticulously laid out with beautiful artwork by @fredward95 @himarudolf @markwitton & yours truly. The slate palette makes navigation to the back matter a snap as you read.

5/5 on Amazon ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
4.82/5 on Goodreads ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Well shoot. Missed ‘200 years of Dinosaurs’ and an opportunity to plug RIFT with an excerpt: “The sprawling reptiles reminded
Lotta of the crumbling remains of the Crystal Palace statues she had seen as a child before they were lost.
Before London’s boroughs were swallowed by the sea”
