Wow, Wow and Wow. Wonders never cease to amaze me. Thanks to Andy (greyarea13) from the Titan Rebuilding Yahoo forum for the finds below.

"Inside the poster book was a four page pamphlet (basically a folded piece of A3 poster paper). On the front is an intro plug of text for Return to Firetop Mountain and Shadowmaster, celebrating FF's 10th anniversary. The back page has a list of the first 50 FF titles and mini bios on Ian and Steve.

The middle two pages however feature a poster version of Terry Oakes' cover for the 10th Anniversary Yearbook, complete with Hell Demon, Caarth, Minotaur, Shapechanger, Fangtiger, Flying Fish of Ilklala, Fog Devil, Giant Sand Worm and Dragon. It looks amazing at this size and is just as good as the actual posters in the poster book."

And the legendary Deathtrap Dungeon Eidos Beermat

January 2010 Here are a couple of photos of 2 new Clarecraft additions to my collection that I received from my wife for Christmas. The Minotaur and Zagor were both obtained from Mark Ayling whom used work for Clarecraft before they closed shop for good. The letter shown here accompanied the figurines and states that the Warlock (Zagor) one is an original paint sample used at Clarecraft.

Warlock of Firetop Mountain was released on iPhone Christmas 2009 for £2.99. I think it is time I got an iPhone or will I? Are you going to give this a miss in favour of playing the books? Let me know what you think. Rumours are that Deathtrap Dungeon will be released as well in 2010 among other titles yet to be confirmed including Return to Firetop Mountain and a Sorcery! app.

Take a peek at some artwork by Martin Mckenna for the latest title 'Night of the Necromancer' to be released in April 2010.
