I've highlighted bits of Far Away Land before, pretty much in two reviews (the Quick Start Rules and the Pawns Pack), but I was also collecting the adventures to make into a book.
Yesterday I read a G+ post that was chock-full of good news. Far Universe, the website for Far Away Land, is going under a major overhaul and will be capable of hosting their own webstore. Usually this just means that you can find another place to buy their rule-books, but since they don't have to pay the 30%+ commission to sites like DriveThruRPG, they can sell these products at a cheaper rater and still probably make more on the deal. All too often the publisher doesn't share this windfall with the purchaser, so hearing about this win-win is significant to me.
The new site will also have its own freebie section. The adventures are already free, but being able to easily pick them up with the rules all in one go is pretty sweet. As I'm writing this there is only the one adventure up, but that will get remedied quickly.
I suggest you favorite Far Universe and check back in periodically. I know I will! In the meantime, you can get these free adventures from DriveThruRPG (A1 Isle of the Rat Wizard is on the Far Universe Site):
A2 Whoa! Here Come the Dead
A3 Crazy Maze Daze
A4 Journey Into the White
A5 The Winter Tournament
A6 Pawns and Knights
A7 Temple of Zoko
A8 Outpost Knoll
A9 Barkoon
A10 Love Actually... Sucks
D1 Dastardly Dungeon of Doom
