Preorders [1] for our newest book, Focal Point: The Complete Game Master’s Guide to Running Extraordinary Sessions [2], are chugging right along! We’ve taken 63 preorders so far — thank you to everyone who has preordered so far!
Ebook versions
Our graphic designer and tech guru, Darren Hardy [3], has finished the ebook and plain text versions of Focal Point! The delay was my fault, not his; this has been a rough, busy year.
When you preorder, the digital edition you’ll receive within 24 hours now includes:
- DRM-free, bookmarked, hyperlinked PDF
- .epub
- .mobi
- .azw3 (Kindle native)
- Plain text (great for text-to-speech readers and cut/paste into your GMing notes!)
As promised, I’ve also circled back and sent all preorder customers an updated zip file/download link that includes the full package. Thanks for your patience!
If you didn’t receive your file/link, please check your spam folder/filter and drop me a line if it’s not in there (martin enginepublishing com).
The proof is in!
I’ve gotten the Focal Point proof back from the printer, and it looks great!


Note: No hairy arms are included with preorder copies.
If you haven’t preordered yet, drop by the Engine Publishing store [1] to check out the options, or download the PDF preview [4] to see if Focal Point sounds like a good addition to your GMing library.
And as always, if you have any questions about the book or the preorder, ask away! I’ll be happy to help.
