I just noticed that details have now been posted for the Dragon Age: Tevinter Nights novel! Ancient horrors. Marauding invaders. Powerful mages. And a world that refuses to stay fixed. Welcome to Thedas. From the stoic Grey Wardens to the otherworldly Mortalitasi necromancers, from the proud Dalish elves to the underhanded Antivan Crow assassins, Dragon Age is filled with monsters, magic, and memorable characters making their way through dangerous world whose only constant is change. Tevinter Nights brings you fifteen tales of adventure, featuring faces new and old, including: Three Trees to Midnight by Patrick Weekes Down Among the Dead Men by Sylvia Feketekuty The Horror of Hormak by John Epler Callback by Lukas Kristjanson Luck in the Gardens by Sylvia Feketekuty Hunger by Brianne Battye Murder by Death Mages by Caitlin Sullivan Kelly The Streets of Minrathous by Brianne Battye The Wigmaker by Courtney Woods Genitivi Dies in the End by Lukas Kristjanson Herold Had the Plan by Ryan Cormier An Old Crow's Old Tricks by Arone Le Bray Eight Little Talons by Courtney Woods Half Up Front by John Epler Dread Wolf Take You by Patrick Weekes

moving it here on request: (should this stuff be under a spoiler tag here? idk that it's spoilers really to speculate off the back of story titles, it's p much the same to me anyways as speculating off the back of the titles of novels when they get announced like "The Masked Empire", but I will for now jic ) 1. "So! What are the chances that short story "Three Trees to Midnight" is a reference to Vir Tanadahl, the Dalish Way of the Three Trees? Dalish are gonna feature somewhere in the book per the blurb. "Murder by Death Mages" seems like an obvious reference to the Mortalitasi, who we also know are gonna feature and are popularly known in-universe as Death Mages. I'll eat my hat if "An Old Crow's Old Tricks" doesn't center on Zevran; he seems the obvious choice, the blurb says we will encounter some old faces in the book, and people have been crying out for some new Zevran content in order to bring his appearances post-DAO more on-level with the other 3 DAO LIs. As for "The Horror of Hormak", Hormak was one of the 4 major kingdoms of the dwarven empire, before it fell to darkspawn. "Paragon Egon Wintersbreath led the defenses of the kingdom of Hormak but that was not enough and within a decade the kingdoms of both Hormak and Gundaar had fallen". The capital city of the kingdom bore the same name. I'd guess that we're looking at a story set during Hormak's fall (which would be a metaphorical horror) or something more literal which beset or originated in the place, like an Arcane Horror. cmon guys spin up those speculation spools 😁"
2. [this other post was about agreeing that on hearing the title Down Among the Dead Me the thoughts that sprung up were about the Legion of the Dead]

I'm hoping we get some Zevran stuff with either An Old Crow's Tricks or Eight Little Talons 👀 Not that he's the only (former) Antivan Crow in existence, but since Leliana/Morrigan/Alistair got waaaaaaay more spotlight in DAI, it'd be nice if Zev got his share of content. But I'd be happy just to hear about other Crows, wayward or loyal. I love a good fantasy assassin's guild.

Callback could refer to a spy being recalled. Wasn't Lukas the one who wrote Talis? Not saying she's coming back, specifically, but it could follow *a* Qunari.

*snip* As for "The Horror of Hormak", Hormak was one of the 4 major kingdoms of the dwarven empire, before it fell to darkspawn. "Paragon Egon Wintersbreath led the defenses of the kingdom of Hormak but that was not enough and within a decade the kingdoms of both Hormak and Gundaar had fallen". The capital city of the kingdom bore the same name. I'd guess that we're looking at a story set during Hormak's fall (which would be a metaphorical horror) or something more literal which beset or originated in the place, like an Arcane Horror. *Snip* eeeeeeeee *makes grabby hands* I'm more excited about this one than the dread wolf one, gimmie that sweet dwarf lore.

"Down Among the Dead Men" Give me more LoD. "Genitivi Dies in the End" Could this go like "Genitivi always dies"? Like, Sean Bean? The many deaths of Genitivi? *imagines knife-in-the-head mega flashback* I don't know. Genitivi survived the UoSA quest exactly once in all my playthroughs. Otherwise, it was deemed inappropriate by my Wardens that any word gets out, for various reasons.

"Eight Little Talons": 8 crows are having a nice relaxing vacation on a totally inconspicuous remote/isolated Island, when suddenly they are killed one by one. "Everyone's a suspect" has never been more fitting than in this great mystery where everyone litterally is a killer ... Either that or Zevran is going around offing his former co-workers.

" Genitivi Dies In The End" I've always gotten the impression that "Philliam, a Bard!" jealously covetted Genitivi's status as the undisputed loremaster in Thedas, but don't you think the title of his new book might be taking this rivalry a little too far?

I found some reviews: www.netgalley.com/book/180025/reviewsThere's only one lengthy one there, but everyone seems to be enjoying it. I've only seen 4-star and 5-star reviews. We also get insights into two of the stories: ""Down Among the Dead Men" by Sylvia Feketekuty. It literally delves into a part of Thedas that has never been explored in depth before - the Nevarran Catacomes and the Necromantic Mortalitasi Mages that look after them. A young guardsmen must help two of the mages locate a corpse that has risen unexpectedly and hidden in the labyrinthine catacombs for some inexplicable reason. The story was fun despite it's macabre setting and circumstance. I was drawn in by the characters and stayed for the hunt. A fun twist to the end made the piece a very satisfying, quick read."""The Wigmaker's Job" by Cortney Woods explores the job of an assassin from the view of two cousins that go about they're deathly duties in two very different ways - one with flash and style, the other with shadow and strike. From back alleys to high fashion parties they persue their target with skill, flair, and a bit of magic. The banter between cousins was witty and sharp, and the target was as horrendous as he was pompous. A fast and adventurous journey of vengeance with a side of mercy."

Another review is up. Not much info is given, but stories are now at least confirmed to be set after Inquisition. "However, this was fantastic. All of these stories have a focus on Tevinter (obviously) which is a country we haven't been able to really explore and learn as much as I would have liked to in the games. So, I was very excited to see it here. I was even more excited to realize that all of these stories take place after Inquisition."
