Wurst joined the series as a co-writer beginning with Daughter of the Empire (1987), the first book in the Empire trilogy.
The first six books in the series come from Feist’s firt pair of trilogies - The Riftwar Saga, which launched the franchise, and its followup The Empire Trilogy.
Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings series while expanding its setting into sci-fi territory as a multiverse that can be traversed by passing through rifts. Like Dungeons & Dragons, The Riftwar Cycle borrows fantasy elements from J.R.R. The final book in the saga, Feist’s Magician’s End, was published in 2013. The first book, Magician, debuted in 1982, launching a franchise that expanded its themes of multidimensional travel with additional writing on later titles from author Janny Wurts. Set in the magical worlds of Midkemia and Kelewan, The Riftwar Universe began in the early 1980s as an alternative roleplaying game fantasy setting inspired by Feist’s own preoccupation with Dungeons & Dragons. It’s a pickup that lands “one of the best known pieces of fantasy IP not yet adapted for the screen,” according to the report, and taps a bestselling franchise that has cumulatively sold more than 20 million copies globally. Feist.ĭeadline reports that fledgling production company Six Studios (led by “lifelong fans of comic book, fantasy/sci-fi, and horror” Jeff Huang and Carl Choi) has picked up the rights to the first six books in the series, with an eye toward adapting the stories for TV.
A series adaptation is reportedly in the works for the books that open The Ritfwar Cycle, a sprawling saga of more than 30 novels and short stories created by author Raymond E. One of the most expansive fantasy book series out there may be heading to the small screen soon.
