Inhaltsangabe:

Of Dice and Men meets Blood, Sweat & Pixels in this celebratory look at the history and impact of Japanese role-playing games (JRPGs) from the early NES classics Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest to massive contemporary hits like Final Fantasy VII.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Aidan Moher is a Hugo Award-winning writer and editor who has written about almost every niche facet of geek culture you can think of from Terry Brooks to Dungeons & Dragons. And whether he’s penning wildly read essays on Lunar: Silver Star Story, the undeniable lasting power of Chrono Trigger (the best RPG ever made), or the forgotten history of Magic the Gathering, he manages to infuse deep, personal, endearing hooks into every story he tells. He’s written for outlets like Wired, Kotaku, Electronic Gaming Monthly, Uncanny Magazine, Fanbyte, Tor.com, and more.
