You carry no risk

Three reasons trying this costs you nothing

No minimum order

Start as small as you like, the ladder begins at one book. No agreement to sign, no obligation to take the whole catalog.

See before you buy

PDF review copies on request. You never have to stock something you have not read yourself.

Never out of stock

The books are printed in Europe or the USA depending on the market you order into, and we export worldwide. Reorder any quantity at any time. Nothing goes on backorder.

Margins

Recommended retail is $20. The rest is yours.

The ladder covers the whole catalog and is set by the total number of books in the order, across any titles. Every title carries a $20 recommended retail. Prices exclude VAT and shipping, exports from Norway are zero rated for VAT. Silverheart is priced separately. Prices as of August 2026.

Independent coverage
“Seeing Karl Otto Kristoffersen (#8) rubbing shoulders with industry giants such as Cubicle 7 and Onyx Path is notable. It demonstrates that in the digital age, a single creator with a strong idea can commercially outperform entire editorial teams.”

Why they sell

One book sells the next

The West Marches Guidebook is one of the best selling titles on DriveThruRPG, the largest tabletop RPG marketplace in the world, with more than 4,450 copies sold and a 4.9 of 5 average on Amazon. The three companion books have passed 1,300 copies each.

A customer who buys one book comes back for the rest of the run. That is why the stores that stock them reorder, and it is what makes a series worth shelf space in a way a single book never is.

A growing catalogue

A shelf that renews itself

Several new titles are in production for this autumn and winter, in the series you already stock and beyond. Shops on our list hear about each launch first, so a reorder can include the new book from day one.

And this is the beginning, not the exception. KR1 builds its catalog together with established designers and partner publishers, and toward 2030 it will grow substantially: more series, more collaborations and more titles in print every single year.

For libraries, schools and museums

Silverheart: learn history by living it

The roleplaying game from the silver mining town of Kongsberg, made for the town's 400th anniversary with support from the Municipality of Kongsberg and expert assistance from the Norwegian Mining Museum. The game was gifted to the town's secondary schools, is used in teaching today, and is sold in the museum shop.

Recommended retail $45. Institutional pricing and class sets on request. An English edition and a school portal with ready made lesson plans arrive in 2027. Read more about Silverheart for schools.
