The Mystery Deepens in the World of Fireborn

Preview Two More Chapters of Each Ember's Ghost

Dive deeper into the mysterious happenings in the streets of London with the second and third chapters of Each Ember’s Ghost! This is the second novel set in the world of Fireborn and the first written by internationally bestselling author Steven Savile.

In the world of Fireborn, powerful scions walk the streets of modern London, oblivious to their true nature. Unknowingly, they carry within them the spirits of reincarnated dragons from an age of high fantasy. As magic begins to emerge once more in the 21st century, long-dormant memories begin to flood the minds of these scions, reminding them of their mystical heritage.

When a series of high-profile London thefts leaves Detective Jack Callaghan baffled, he begins to suspect that his perpetrator is no average cat burglar. After all, she can apparently melt locks with a gesture, render security cameras useless, and plant subconscious suggestions in the minds of onlookers. But why is this mysterious thief collecting relics of dubious monetary value? And how does Callaghan’s investigation tie in to his increasingly disturbing visions? To find answers, a veteran investigator must first unlock secrets buried deep within himself... all while unraveling a plot that could lead to the downfall of everything he holds dear.

Worlds of Mystery and Danger

Four New Novels are Available from Fantasy Flight Publishing

From prohibition-era New England to a dystopian future, and from a magical modern-day London to a horrifically war-torn alternate history, our rich narrative worlds have long sparked the imaginations of players. Today, we’re pleased to release four all-new stories from Fantasy Flight Publishing.

Bones of the Yopasi, Each Ember’s Ghost, Operation: Night Eagle, and Strange Flesh are all on sale, and each can be found on our webstore, at your local hobby games retailer, or on your favorite eBook reader!

Bones of the Yopasi

Bones of the Yopasi is the thrilling second novel in The Dark Waters Trilogy. In this sequel, the award-winning Graham McNeill continues the harrowing story begun in Ghouls of the Miskatonic. Featuring the mysterious and terrifying setting of Arkham Horror, Bones of the Yopasi draws inspiration from the eldritch universe created by H.P. Lovecraft.

Having barely recovered from a profound psychological ordeal, Miskatonic University professor Oliver Grayson looks forward to returning to normal life. Unfortunately for Grayson, however, his trials are only just beginning. After being called to the mist-shrouded town of Kingsport to identify some strange bones, the professor must join an unlikely team of investigators to face a horrifying new threat. But can they conquer their own demons in time to confront their common enemy?

Each Ember’s Ghost

But why is this mysterious thief collecting relics of dubious monetary value? And how does Callaghan’s investigation tie in to his increasingly disturbing visions? To find answers, a veteran investigator must first unlock secrets buried deep within himself... all while unraveling a plot that could lead to the downfall of everything he holds dear.

Each Ember’s Ghost is a novel based on the acclaimed Fireborn roleplaying game setting. Written by internationally bestselling author Steven Savile, Each Ember’s Ghost presents readers with a modern world faced with the sudden emergence of magic.

Operation: Night Eagle

The year is 1949, and in a dark and violent alternate history, the Great War never ended. The forces of the Reich, led by the occult-obsessed Kaiser, have sold their souls to demonic powers as they scour the earth in search of paranormal weaponry.

Meanwhile, President Edison has sanctioned the use of potent alien technology recovered at Roswell, in hopes of aiding the beleaguered Union in its fight against tyranny. This is the world of Tannhäuser.

But now, a series of events has been set in motion that could tip the balance of power forever. When the occult-obsessed Reich sets its sights on an ancient artifact held in Washington, D.C.’s Smithsonian Castle, the ruthless Hermann Von Heïzinger plans an unprecedented raid on U.S. soil...and only Major John McNeal and the elite soldiers of the 42nd Marines stand before them.

There’s more to this mission than meets the eye, however. Why has the enigmatic Matriarchy mobilized its forces? And to whom is the mysterious mercenary Wolf truly loyal? In Operation: Night Eagle, the epic battle rages deep into America’s heartland!

Strange Flesh

Set in the strange future of the Android universe, Matthew Farrer's Strange Flesh breathes life into a world where humanity is fused with technology, and conspiracies, corruption, and danger riddle the streets of New Angeles.

While the world has changed, crime has not. A tangled web of lies and corruption surrounds the New Angeles headquarters of Jinteki, a massive mega-corporation that leads the industry in cloning technology. When corporate watchdog and media blogger Tallie Perrault stumbles upon evidence of a shocking coverup, she begins to unravel a conspiracy with world-changing implications. Now, Perrault must share her story with veteran NAPD detective and troubled psychic Caprice Nisei. But can these two women uncover the truth before it’s too late?

Each Ember's Ghost

Announcing an Upcoming Fireborn Novel by Steven Savile

Alice Ho slipped through the darkness like a razor blade cutting into a vein. Silence was a virtue in certain walks of life. In Alice’s it was the stuff of life and death itself. She pressed herself up against the wall, feeling the thrill of cold stone on her back. She offered as little of her profile as was physically possible to the surveillance cameras. It was impossible to hide from all of them. The cameras covered every inch of the corridor, a miniaturized version of the world outside: once upon a time, London had been the most spied upon city in the world—there were still eyes everywhere. Alice was pragmatic. She wanted to make life as difficult as possible for the authorities, and yet still taunt them with the hope that they might just be able to identify her. It was all about angles and light and shadow, and the fact that she just loved to tease. It didn’t hurt that she enjoyed being three steps ahead of the people chasing her, twice as intelligent as them, and better looking. Alice barely suppressed a chuckle at that.

Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce the upcoming release of Each Ember’s Ghost, a novel set in the captivating world of Fireborn!
