The thran j robert king pdf free6/13/2023 ![]() Ki This may be the most important (if you can call any MTG fluff important) book to date as far as understanding the background for the MTG universe. ![]() Chronicling events that shape the story behind at least 20 other books that I know of, THE THRAN finally provides the back story on which nearly everything else is based on. Millennia before the Brothers' War and the Ice Age, this book reveals the mysteries of Yawgmoth, Gix, Phyrexia, Mercadia, the Meekstone, the Mightstone, artifice, and the Thran. King is perhaps the best writer to contribute to the MTG saga, and his skill is on fine display here. ![]() Staying within the limits of the already well-established sequence of events, King is still able to produce a fun and interesting read that has all the suspense and mystery you could ask for. Even though you know that the Thran will be decimated and Yawgmoth will live, the book isn't completely predictable and nothing seems inevitable. ![]() Quite an accomplishment when you consider that most of the story had been set out ahead of time. The book does, however, take away a lot of the mystery that had previously made the Thran and the rest of the MTG universe so intriguing. While I love to learn more about the history of the multiverse and hear the secrets of its past, I think the reality presented here takes away from the glamour that the Thran had before. We find that they really aren't some super-advanced god-like race, but mere humans with all the troubles and faults of everyone else.
