<b>''The Tales of Ka-Ess''</b>, containing the complete works of the [[wikipedia:Bard (Dungeons & Dragons)|bard]] [[Ka-Ess Lizardkin]], remained unpublished until long after the author's unsettling demise. Criticized by poetic authorities as grandiloquent, longwinded, grandiose, and delusional, Ka-Ess' excruciatingly detailed accounts of his own minutiae nevertheless have afforded historians insight into daily life in the [[Skaugan Main]] during the rule of the [[Council of High Captains]].

The works included in <i>Tales of Ka-Ess</i> take many forms, including formal rhyming and alliterative poetry, scholarly entries, journals, notes, [[Draconic]] hieroglyphics and obscene pictograms. Most historians and philologists believe that the varied nature of its contents suggest that the original codex was assembled from fragments rather than written as one unified work. The influence, and perhaps authorship, of the [[Ka-Ess editor]] on the work's contents remains disputed.


This annotated and illustrated edition of the ''Tales'' represents the most comprehensive effort to date to create a complete history of Ka-Ess and [[The Fishwives|his companions]]' lives and adventures from the material available in the original [[wikipedia:codex|codex]] and other relevant sources.
