Posted by Michael O'Brien on 25th Jan 2021
Chris Gidlow's Citizens of the Lunar Empire is the latest Jonstown Compendium release to feature evocative Gloranthan cover art by Mark Smylie of Artesia fame. A 172 page sourcebook for RuneQuest urban adventures, this engaging and entertaining work by the creator of Credo focuses on the day-to-day lives of the working-class heroes of the Lunar capital, Glamour. (The city is also described in more detail in the Jonstown Compendium's A Rough Guide to Glamour).
