Titan Books Gets Rights from Jagex For a New Trio of RuneScape Novels
First tabletop gaming, and now the RuneScape universe is coming to three new novels via a deal announced between Jagex and Titan Books.
Titan has acquired world rights to develop three novels set within the RuneScape universe, with the first, RuneScape: The Gift of Guthix , set to come out in May 2024. The second and third novels will be published in September 2024 and in February 2025. The deal continues the expansion of the RuneScape IP to media outside the MMORPG itself and marks the first official RuneScape novels in years…
Author Erin M. Evans is writing the first novel. Her credits include seven Forgotten Realms novels for Wizards of the Coast, time as a cast member of D&D Dungeon Scrawlers, and content design work for Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms.
In RuneScape: The Gift of Guthix,
“Asgarnia’s fate hangs in the balance. Disparate tribes unite under the banner of Lord Raddalin, and his enemies look on in fear and hatred. Raddalin’s advisors – an uneasy alliance of Black and White knights – whisper of a discovery in the North that will give them the power to change everything.
Caught in the midst of history, a lowly scribe and the son of a Jarl hold the fate of Raddalin’s new kingdom in their hands.
From the glorious inauguration of King Raddalin’s reign to the disgraceful expulsion of the Zamorakians from Asgarnia, The Gift of Guthix tells an epic tale of the origin of magic, the plight of civil war, and the crushing defeat of the Fremennik Great Invasion. Amongst plots and betrayals, a penitent turncoat waits for her moment to leap into the unknown.”
