Well, the books were cancelled, the Hickman's sued for 10 million dollars, and now the books are being released.
What exactly is YOUR argument?

I mean, more like the fact they cancelled their books before being lawsuited back into releasing them. Plus, the fact they have said the books have nothing to do with the new campaign setting.
This is less conspiracy theory than Bob is covered in blood and jill is dead in his apartment.

An alternative theory is that WOTC cancelled Margeret and Tracy's book trilogy (despite Book 1# being written) because they had given them permission to write it before developing their new Dragonlance IP that the book contradicted.
Because they didn't bother to tell them they were making a new...
Weirdly, I don't actually think Tanis WAS killed by a random nobody. He was killed by Steel Brightblade in the craziness of the battle.
It's just Steel didn't want to admit it or claim credit while other Knights of Takhasis wanted to.
The most brutal deconstruction of the Satanic Panic is simply listing facts about a lot their arguments came from experts who were themselves known liars (one was a doctor with his license removed due to trading sex for drugs), how the statistics they quoted were often completely made up...
I remember when a fundamentalist friend of mine told me he burned his Changeling: The Dreaming books during the 90s and felt free of it.
I was like, "You've burned books, my friends. This is not something godly."
My review kind of skips over the entire Nineties White Wolf period too where there was some serious humor to the counter-culture Goths embracing Mark Rein Hagen's game.
"Oh yes, I tried to incorporate as much real magic as possible. Also, demonology, the occult, and controversial religious...
Hilarious fact:
Today, my book SPACE ACADEMY DROPOUTS, received a 1 star review from Amazon.com that blasted me for being obsessed with "Nazi, Nazi, Nazi!" "marginalized political groups" and "political propaganda." He said that I ruined my books with my attempts to be woke and anti-fascist...
Not just the Bible Belt. Al Gore's wife took it national as part of her activism and there were also police groups across the country taking it more seriously than everyone else.
I'm old enough to have been caught in the tail end of it but it was already Vampire: The Masquerade picking up where...
I may be giving the book an unfair shake, I admit. For me, I feel like it just sort of jumps past what were more interesting events. The best parts of the book are discussing the events around the Satanic Panic and the absolute bizarrity at work. Basically when the book stops to deconstruct the...
Mad is perhaps a poor word. Actively incompetent or attempting to deceive the nation for financial gain is another given the family of Egbert themselves were furious over The Dungeon Master book he wrote and its sensationalization of their son's death. He also was constantly lying to people as...

"Never argue with an idiot. You'll never convince the idiot that you're correct, and bystanders won't be able to tell who's who." - Mark Twain
This is a deeply frustrating book for me because I wanted to like...
13. That does increase the role of religion in the setting.
14. Poor Sovereign Host. They always get the shaft of Eberron religions.
17. The Orcs of Thar is funny because it's the only time Ed Greenwood seems to have canonized other D&D material in the Realm as there's a Thar in the Realms...
113. [Planescape] Sigil is not actually a particularly enlightened place despite its pretensions as the center of the Multiverse but a location that bends towards philosophical neutrality in all things. Which in simple terms means that everyone who believes very strongly in something will find...
My only problem is that the show did a fantastic job of selling me the fact that black magic is perfectly moral and the elves need to be destroyed to save humanity.

This is apparently not what the show is about.
