Warning!

Violence, War, Magic & the Supernatural

The fictional world of Rifts® is violent, deadly and filled with supernatural monsters. Other-dimensional

beings often referred to as "demons," torment, stalk and prey on humans. Other alien life forms, monsters, gods

and demigods, as well as magic, insanity, and war are all elements in this book.

Some parents may find the violence, magic and supernatural elements of the game inappropriate for young

readers/players. We suggest parental discretion.

Please note that none of us at Palladium Books® condone or encourage the occult, the practice of magic, the

use of drugs, or violence.

Dedication

To all the "true believers" who have followed the Coalition Wars series from the very beginning. And

to those who've spent endless hours trying to guess (or play out) the final outcome and sent Palladium

their guesses, hopes and fears. This one's for you. I hope you enjoy it.
