National Indie Excellence Awards

The Fablemaker’s Deck of Many Things Holo-Foil Box Set took home the Best Gift Book award for its quality writing, gorgeous art, and stunning presentation. The Fablemaker’s Deck of Many Things is an oracle deck based on the legendary 5e magic item. The deck is illustrated by Yoshi Yoshitani with monochrome and full-color versions of the cards. It comes with a guidebook with questions to guide your intuition, and new rules for 5e players.

The Field Guide to Floral Dragons was awarded Best Reference Book for its detailed lore, clear mechanics, and beautiful illustrations. The Field Guide to Floral Dragons blends the fascinating world of flowers with dragons and a dash of magic to create a fabulously floral draconomicon. The art and concept were created by Kin Wald.
