The player assumes the role of Eydin of House Northwind, a carefree wanderer soon drawn into a game of unimaginable stakes — with the fate of the entire world of Eth hanging in the balance. An ancient and malevolent force has awakened, preparing to cross from the world between into Eydin’s own reality. Should it succeed, swift and merciless death will fall upon all living things. In this first adventure-filled book, Eydin joins forces with an aged mage from a shadowed order and his bodyguard, the legendary twin-blade mercenary Elmont Hawk.

“The Master of Flux is, at heart, a classic gamebook, infused with my long since discarded roleplaying game and its world. It embraces a deliberately weighty ruleset that, perhaps unlike other gamebooks, offers unexpected depth while resting on a fundamentally simple foundation.” — Martin Tobias Lithner
