DDO – The Shard Axe Releases

The first novel based on the MMO Dungeons & Dragons Online has released.  The Shard Axe was written by Marsheila Rockwell and is now on bookshelves around North America.  A sample chapter is available at the Wizards of the Coast Dungeons & Dragons page.

The electronic versions (Kindle, e-reader, etc.) are also available.  From the back cover:

Sentinel Marshal Sabira d’Deneith has spent the last eight years trying to drown the memories of the mission that cost her partner his life and gave her the nickname “The Shard axe.” Until she’s recalled from the city of Stormreach to carry out a mission on House Deneith’s behalf–protect and defend the heir of the dwarven city of Frostmantle during his murder trial. The same heir she and her partner guarded eight years ago in the same city–from the same style of murders. Is the dreaded Nightshard still alive and taunting her? Or is there another serial killer loose in the Mror Holds?

The author, Marsheila Rockwell, has written another D&D novel, Legacy of Wolves, which published in 2007.
