Back in October, we covered the heart-warming story of a Secret World Legends player who wrote a novel based on the game’s IP. The best part was that Funcom gave author Amber “Blodwedd Mallory” McKee the licensing go-ahead to do it in the first place, when y’all know that most IP holders would sooner whip out a lawsuit. Warm fuzzies all around.
The first book, TO SIR, WITH LOVE: An Unofficial Legend of The Secret World, came out last year, while a sequel, LONDON UNDERGROUND: An Unofficial Legend of The Secret World, just released at the end of January. And now McKee has generously offered a stack of digital copies for our readers!
“TO SIR, WITH LOVE: An Unofficial Legend of The Secret World – When the world ends, the fog rolls into Solomon Island and the dead start to rise. Innsmouth Academy senior Blodwedd Mallory fights to save her school from the destruction. But can she uncover secrets of the Academy’s dark history in time to stop Mal’un the Accursed from destroying the headmaster and preventing her graduation and initiation as a Templar?
LONDON UNDERGROUND: An Unofficial Legend of The Secret World – When she leaves Innsmouth Academy to join with the Templars, Blodwedd “Wedd” Mallory hopes to finish her training and be assigned to the field as an agent like her mother. But will her chances be sidelined by Special Assignment Supervisor Dame Julia and Master-of-Arms Brigadier Lethe when a deadly supernatural bomb in Tokyo throws the world into an uproar and her mother goes missing?
Both are available for purchase now on Amazon in Kindle and paperback formats. For more information about TO SIR, WITH LOVE or other future unofficial legends, visit https://blodweddmallory.com. These are unofficial stories set in the world of The Secret World and Secret World Legends. The IP is used under licensed agreement with Funcom Oslo AS.”
Also, the books’ cover illustrator is fellow SWL player Mark “HolloPoint” Innes – all the images in this post are his work! Like this one!
