Monstrous Compendium Annual Volume Two [/sblock] Including novels set in D&D worlds pushes the output for 1995 up to nearly 120 products. Here's another graph with the novels included. I knew someone was going to ask about novels... ;) Note that I've only counted the first printing of a novel, not later paperback reprints of hardcover releases, gift sets or other collections. Reprints of older novels have made up a large chunk of WotC's total novel output in the last few years, so including the reprints would bulk up the latter portion of the novel graph a bit. I have also included the Endless Quest and AD&D Adventure Gamebooks as novels, in case anyone was wondering about those. [/QUOTE]
