Singing with the Eagles, and sighing. Will it ever change?
“Who will provide the grand design?
What is yours and what is mine?
'Cause there is no more new frontier
We have got to make it here.
We satisfy our endless needs
and justify our bloody deeds
In the name of destiny
And in the name of God…”

Kings of the Wyld, nicholaseames.com by @nicholaseames.bsky.social
Has:
- A lighter Grimdark.
- 70's rock references.
- Fighting everything in the Monster Manual.
- Adventuring companies treated like rock bands.
- And that f'n minotaur.

This book reads like the best D&D campaign you ever played.
