Publication history
Eldarad: The Lost City was written by Chris Watson, with a cover by Jim Holloway, and was published by Avalon Hill in 1990 as a 64-page book, a 56-page book, and a 32-page book, two color maps, two large color maps, and an outer folder.[1][2]
Shannon Appelcline noted that "Avalon Hill decided to continue RuneQuest by publishing non-Gloranthan material. However, rather than returning to their colorful Fantasy Earth, they instead published two books set in completely different fantasy milieus, Daughters of Darkness (1990) and Eldarad (1990). These books were widely derided by RuneQuest fans, in large part due to their lack of applicability to any RuneQuest game (except those of the authors)."[3]: 224
