We're back on the Nightbane book train with the second of the expansion content books: Nightlands! This book is just damn amazing in every way, and we had a whole lot of fun talking about it. It's a fantastic example of why the Nightbane setting is so perfect, and also an example of just how truly imaginative and inspiring Palladium's settings can be.
