Shadowfist Magazine & Webzine Articles

[posted 11 Apr 2003; updated 19 Apr 2012]

I'd like to compile a list of all the Shadowfist articles that have been published in any magazine or webzine. And ideally, I'd like to get the author's and publisher's permission to reprint those articles here. As a bonus, a scan or photo of the magazine cover would be great too, but I'm not going to push my luck.

Please email me to contribute to this list, or if you can provide a photo for anything that's missing, or if you're an author who's willing to allow your article to be reprinted (and hopefully you have the text of your article available in softcopy :) I will contact the publisher to request permission. InQuest gave permission by email without a hassle, but they've closed up shop. Scrye allowed reposting before October 2005, then they wanted to impose a 30 day time limit on reposts which defeated the purpose of reposting, and Scrye is gone now too anyway.

Thanks to David Eber, Dave Van Domelen, and Jan Malina for contributing, and special thanks to Leigh Martin for pretty much tripling the size of the list and providing copies of a bunch of these :) Big thanks also due to Braz King from Shadowfist Games for allowing me to host the old issues of Kii-Yaaah, and Daniel Griego from Inner Kingdom Games for allowing me to mirror the Inner Kingdom Update.
