Monte Scares up Horror Tale Exclusively for Game Trade Magazine!

Beginning in Game Trade Magazine Issue #29, Monte will be writing an exclusive horror fiction series, "The Shandler Chronicles." This series, culled from the transcripts of an intrepid investigator Phillip Shandler, chronicles his exploits into murder, mystery, and utter mayhem against the backdrop of Arkham and the world of Call of Cthluhu. Monte has previously scribed an introductory adventure for Call of Cthulhu d20 titled "Infest," for Game Trade Magazine (Issue #26).

Monte Cook is most recognized for his writing and game design works for Wizards of the Coast's Dungeon & Dragons 3rd Edition, Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil, and the d20 adaptation of Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu. Today he writes for his own d20 imprint, Malhavoc Press.

"We are excited to have Monte Cook as a regular contributor," said Phyllis Opolko, editor of Game Trade Magazine. "He is so well known in the gaming community and, with a special style of writing, he will be a tremendous asset to our magazine."

"As a longtime fan of Call of Cthulhu, [I know that] weaving a story through the game's supplements is great fun," said Monte. "The upcoming stories are not always going to be what you think, but then Call of Cthulhu never is -- there's always a surprise around the corner."
