"Long after everything has turned to dust and the warriors of old are long dead. At the deepest bottom of the dungeons, far beyond the throne, beyond the halls where glorious battles once raged, there lies a gap. Where the wall meets the floor, a pitch-black crack, an ell high and three ells wide. A barely perceptible breath of cold emanates from it. But if you lie on your stomach, you can fit inside…"

Veins of the Earth is a truly unique sourcebook, not just for the Lamentations of the Flame Princess role-playing game. You will discover a bizarre world where light is currency and food is the most valuable thing of all… Which happens to be you!

Inside, you will find a set of tools that allow you to play in a bizarre subterranean world. The book is largely a bestiary, along with a collection of cave generators and aids for running games within them. You will find living darkness, fantastical creatures, and natural caverns that will make your head spin.

The book is richly illustrated with unique, atmospheric drawings and is written entirely in English.

In Veins of the Earth, you will find:

• A detailed description of fifty monsters and six cultures lurking in the Veins
• Tools to help the Game Master generate maps and locations
• Expanded rules for movement in places that have never seen the sun
• Inspirational descriptions of different types of light and different types of darkness
• Various kinds of fear, madness, and nightmares
