Filip Magnus

When Filip isn't too busy murdering his players in D&D, he's nose-deep in a fantasy novel, reading both the classics of the genre and those promising new releases, both indie and traditionally published. Filip also enjoys a good graphic novel, a spectacular sci-fi book, and an awe-inspiring alliteration.
