How fast does TH Lain write?

[Krug]

How old is the Iconics series? Reading some of the reviews over at D20 Magazine rack and there's at least... 8 or 9 of them so far!

I can't offer a link, but I'm pretty sure that I read TH Lain is just a pseudonym for 3 or 4 writers at WotC.

this is correct.

so (s)he can write multiple stories all at the same time.

Ah! The wonders of Mack Bolan and John Norman

Frighteningly enough, the Gor books were all written by one person.

Or maybe that's comforting. I'm not sure which.

Argh. Kill me.

I misread TH Lain as TH White, and thought "hang on...the guy who wrote Once and Future King is now writing D&D tie-in fiction for WotC???"

 

[Vocenoctum]

That's why I stopped reading the series. Half the books were so unreadable, that it wasn't worth it to find the decent ones.

If they marked the authors, I could just pick out the author's I liked.

I was relatively confident that one of those books, I think it was "The Bloody Eye" or somesuch, was done by ex-President of Paizo, Johnny Wilson.

My reason for thinking that was that that book, when it came out, found itself with both a piece of fiction in Dragon and an adventure in Dungeon, the latter of which was done by Johnny Wilson (and, IIRC, the former also, I think). It is, AFAIK, the only direct article by Wilson in either of the magazines, and none of the other Iconics books got so much support (some got a bit here and there, but not nearly that much).
