TOR books has announced that they will be publishing a third novel based on the fantasy RPG series, Dragon Age. Like the novels preceding it, Dragon Age: Asunder will be penned by BioWare Senior Writer David Gaider. The story will take place following the events of Dragon Age II and follow a mage seeking to prove himself innocent of a murder within his order. The book is currently planned for release late in 2011.
I’ve never read much in the way of novels based in the worlds of videogames. I did read a fair few Shadowrun novels back in the day, however, and always assumed that they were much the same in that there were a few diamonds in the rough but most were largely disposable. BioWare has a good track record for engaging stories, so it could be a decent read. Did anybody read the previous novels?
