Welcome to my newest site. One that will grow as time goes by. Eventually I will have scans of my orginal works of scrolls for Amtgard. But for now I am going to start with a list of books that I and others have. If I come across reviews of the books I will also add them in the future. For now I am adding only where they can be found either for purchase or for online viewing. Have Fun!
