Well met
Aye, a splendid set of volumes of lore. Work had commenced for Volume X, but as The Sage stated, various reasons halted it's production.
However... I am unlocking the door, blowing off the dust and looking at recommencing this as part of Candlekeep v2. After recent discussions and work picking up again, watch this space...Candlekeep will be changing, mark my words  |

Aye, Alisttair. Once i've cleared a few things up regarding our standing with the Compendium, and secured a few things, then i'll be in touch and reinstate the Compendium chamber for the scribes involved  |

| any chance of a new issue? |
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.
-J.R.R. Tolkien

Well met
Aye, it's possible, silverwolfer  However, I'd say the most we would go to would be to download a year's volumes (i.e. four) in one file. I'll look into flagging required volumes as part of Candlekeep v2.0 however...it would actually be quite useful overall to select individual articles and downloads throughout the site. |

Well met, dazzlerdal
Indeed, the Candlekeep Compendium will make a return and hopefully gather momentum again.
Generally, the staff of the Compendium produce regular articles for each volume, but we do have new members of submissions. Feel free to email me with your ideas or submission.
The format/font etc. matters not, as the editors address this aspect. As to editions/locations etc, we sometimes have a theme and initial round of suggestions and approvals, but so long as it's Forgotten Realms, then you can't go far wrong! |

| One of my personal faves among Compendium articles was the introduction and description of an entirely new subrace of gnolls. The article started with a bit of canon, and then spun an entirely non-canon but quite nifty race out of that. |

Hi there!
I just want to say I truly enjoyed reading the compendiums.
I'm also interested in the idea of new ones being created. I have one question though, would it still be for 3rd edition or would it be for 4th?
Thanks again!

| Thank you for all the hard work that went into creating these compendiums. I am hoping that the release of 5th edition will create a resurgence of fan writing like this. |

The Candlekeep Compendium is complete for now. Nothing more is currently planned although a volume was in progress a number of years ago before being parked.
It may well return in the future but nothing is scheduled at the moment. |
