AH85906 Sun County (1992)

Cover by Roger Raupp

Sun County – Prax

Sun County is a small enclave of staunchly independent farmers. Their stubborn ways have resisted nomads, famine and drought for centuries.

Strangers are not welcome in the Lands of the Sun, but many are drawn there by the promise of gold, fame, and adventure.

Do you dare to enter the Sun Dome lands?
