Publication history
Elder Secrets of Glorantha was written by
Shannon Appelcline commented that once Avalon Hill and Chaosium realized they made a mistake in dropping Glorantha from RuneQuest, "The Fantasy Earth supplements came to an abrupt halt and Glorantha material started appearing - much of it updating second edition releases, but some of it including totally new material, including the well-received Glorantha (1988) and Elder Secrets (1989)."[3]: 222 Appelcline further described this relationship between the two companies: "Though Chaosium initially set new RuneQuest material in "Fantasy Earth," they quickly moved back to Glorantha, publishing classics like Gods of Glorantha (1985), Glorantha (1988), and Elder Secrets of Glorantha (1989). Unfortunately, the relationship between the two companies frayed entirely in 1989. Chaosium ceased working with Avalon Hill and as a result Gloranthan publications ended the next year."[4]: 56
