Forgotten Futures VIII: Fables and Frolics

Introduction FF VIII is based on Victorian children's fantasy and especially the stories of Edith Nesbit. The collection includes the three "Psammead" novels: Five Children and It, The Phoenix and the Carpet and The Story of the Amulet, 23 short stories, and a series of autobiographical articles describing Nesbit's childhood. Role playing includes extensive material on Victorian and Edwardian childhood, magic rules, and various settings for magical campaigns, and three long adventures. Note: Due to European copyright problems the stories do not include their original illustrations by H. R. Millar; instead they are illustrated by more than 150 copyright-expired and new pictures.
