Children of the Nameless is a novella written by Brandon Sanderson set in the extended universe of the card game Magic: The Gathering. The novella was released for free on the website of Wizards of the Coast, the publishers of Magic, through an arrangement that allowed Brandon increased creative control of the story. It is set on the plane of Innistrad several years after the events of Eldritch Moon. It introduces the original characters Tacenda Verlasen and Davriel Cane and follows their story as they seek to uncover the mystery of Tacenda's entire village being taken by geists.

This was a fun novella that helped flesh out the culture of Innistrad really well, as well as introducing some interesting new characters in Tacenda and Davriel. Hopefully they weren't created just for this story, and will continue as part of the larger Innistrad mythology.
I can't imagine anyone being really interested in this is they aren't already invested in the lore of Magic: the Gathering, but if you are it's a great read.
Hmmm. Tough to give less than 3 stars to Brandon but while this had all the ingredients it was just not memorable enough as a read. It also seemed like the Lord of the manor was a caricature of Lightsong and does not really impress. All in all tough to see myself coming back for more
