Iron Realms Acquires Raymond E. Feist Rights

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
IRON REALMS ACQUIRES RAYMOND E. FEIST RIGHTS
Mill Valley, CA -- August 27, 2003 -- Iron Realms Entertainment, an award-winning California-based developer of massively multiplayer games
(MMORPGs) announced today that it has acquired the exclusive worldwide rights to produce online games based on best-selling author

Raymond E. Feist's Riftwar series of books.
'The universe Raymond writes about is incredibly epic, diverse, and detailed. I've been a fan of his books for well over fifteen years and am very
excited that we're going to get to develop games based in the world of Midkemia,' said Matt Mihaly, Iron Realms's CEO and Creative Director.
'There are millions of Feist fans out there and there's not been a game based on his work since 1998,' said Martin Best, VP of Production for Iron
Realms. 'Our plans for the license aren't finalized yet but you will definitely be seeing at least one game based on the property.'
Mr. Feist has sold over 20 million books and is one of the best selling fantasy authors in history. He's written more than fifteen books taking place in the same setting including 'Magician', 'A Darkness at Sethanon', and his latest book, 'Talon of the Silver Hawk.' His roleplaying game 'Betrayal at Krondor' (Sierra, 1993) is considered one of the finest RPGs ever, having won multiple Game of the Year awards as well as induction into Computer Gaming World's Hall of Fame. A highly-regarded sequel -- 'Return to Krondor' -- was also published by Sierra, in 1998.
'His books contain a good twenty-five distinct cultures ranging from the traditional medieval European Kingdom to the desert empire of Great Kesh, to the nomadic centaur-like Thun to the China-meets-Aztec Tsuranuanni ,' said Mihaly. 'Our games tend to focus on cooperative and combative community mechanics such as religious strife, war, and internal political conflict so this variety in culture provides for all sorts of great design opportunities.'

King of Foxes Cover

Ray Posted the following to the list regards King of Foxes

I've seen the rough draft of the US cover. Don't know what the British are doing yet. The US Cover will be similar to Talon in that it's going to be type heavy with a picture of a banner of a fox with a crown in the centre and behind that a relief of troops storming a castle. Mostly red/brown in colour if the rough I got is remotely accurate.
Best, R.E.F.

King of Foxes Turned In

Ray posted the following to the list

So, currently, I'm working on The Conclave of Shadows. So, King of Foxes was turned in last week, and after doing a short story with Janny Wurts for a collection edited by Al Sarrantonio, I'll do the author's preferred rewrite of
Prince of the Blood, then I'll go on to the last three Conclave books, Exile's
Return, The Dark Empire, and Magician's Sons.

In response to the question - Is there any news on when bittersea.com will be up & running?

Ray posted to the mailing list the following response

No, not really. John does such an amazing job over at Crydee.com I'm finding little reason to do anything myself. I think maybe I'll turn John's site into the "official" one.

Best, R.E.F.
