Aconyte is an Asmodee company led by Marc Gascoigne.
Gascoigne founded The Black Library, co-wrote the original Judge Dredd RPG and is the managing director at Angry Robot. While Aconyte was founded during the pandemic, in the winter of 2020, it already has offices in Nottingham (UK), Montana (US) and Roseville (US).
There are over 30 books out from Aconyte already, and Halloween feels like a good time to highlight this Terrifying Halloween Tales sampler available as a free download from DriveThruFiction. That’s a sister site to the DMsGuild and DriveThruRPG.
There’s another RPG connection too. Here’s how Aconyte describe the 205-page free sample;
A free Halloween Sampler of our most spine-chilling novels, from the cosmic terror of Arkham Horror, to the demon-haunted mountains of Legend of the Five Rings, and the monsters and necromancy of Descent: Journeys in the Dark…
That’s gamer material we like to find here in Geek Native HQ.
Authors include Josh Reynolds, Robbie MacNiven, David Anandale, S.A. Sidor and Marie Brennan while the formats in the download include PDF, epub and mobi. Kindle user? Mobi is the format for you.
Reviews on freebies are rare, but there are currently two on DriveThruFiction, giving the download a 4/5 rating.
