The Vorthos Cast

The unofficial podcast about Magic: the Gathering story and lore! New episodes every Monday. Hosted by @vorthosjay.bsky.social, @loreleywrites.bsky.social, @mtglordofleaves.bsky.social, @acry.bsky.social, @chrisrd19.bsky.social, and @iwriterobots.com!
On the bright side, this means two more months to convince all your friends to preorder the book!
So a lot of us woke up this morning to an email informing us that OMENS OF CHAOS (have you pre-ordered yet?) had been pushed from February 2026 to April 2026. People are understandably confused, not thrilled, and expressing both these things to me. So here's what I can say.

As we move into a major shopping weekend, filled with sales and exciting offers, I wanted to remind y'all about OMENS OF CHAOS, the first print Magic the Gathering novel since 2019!

For many Magic players, Lorwyn-Shadowmoor is a mere tale from ages past. With #MTGLorwyn on the horizon, The Magic Story Podcast is here with a history lesson on the land of light and shadow for any players who need a touch of reminding.

Just a quick heads up to people.
The web stories for the upcoming Lorwyn set start on Dec. 8 .
That's two weeks from now. I am pretty excited to ready magic story again, not going to lie.

Lorwyn First Light is out today! This is a D&D supplement that takes players to the world of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor as it is today!
It won't be a physical book like our past MTG setting supplements (booooo!), and it's a lot shorter. But still worth checking out!

MORE IN THIS SERIES, OR MORE MAGIC?
Both! The sequel, OMENS OF CONSEQUENCE, takes place in New Capenna, and my highline for it is "Magic the Gathering does THE GREAT GATSBY." I wanna write it.
I also wanna revive the Planeswalker line, and write Nahiri and Tyvar novels. So. No chill here.
