One world. Five Visions. The Quintessential World of Darkness

Last year, The Essential World of Darkness introduced readers to Vampire, Werewolf, Mage, Wraith, and Changeling. The Quintessential World of Darkness features more stories of the supernatural in a modern world that is a little too much like our own.

The stories within this massive tome have their origin in the fameous role-playing game series by White Wolf Publishing:

• The Lotus of Five Petals is tale of the mysterious Asian vampires found in the game Kindred of the East.
• The Silver Crown is based upon the popular Werewolf: The Apocalypse game.
• Mister Magick comes from the Mage: The Ascension.
• Beyond the Shroud uncovers only a few of the mysteries of Wraith: The Oblivion.
• The Muse represents Changeling: The Dreaming.

Table of Contents:

• The Lotus of Five Petals by Kevin Andrew Murphy
• The Silver Crown by William Bridges
• Mister Magick by Edo van Belkom
• Beyond the Shroud by Rick Hautala
• The Muse by Jody Lynn Nye
