Plot summary

Reception
Andy Butcher reviewed 'The Cursed Land' for 'Arcane' magazine, rating it a 5 out of 10 overall. Butcher comments that "It's not that 'The Cursed Land' is badly written. It's actually quite enjoyable, and mercifully avoids drawing too heavily on the specifics of 'Magic: The Gathering' of which it is a spin-off. It's just that you've probably read so much of it before. In fact, if you've ever roleplayed in a fantasy game, you've probably 'played' a lot of it before..."
