Tome of Blood
From Blood
Tome of Blood is a collection of fourteen short stories and three poems by Hamish Wilson created in the spring of 2008 and uploaded onto the Internet on April 25, 2008. The first story written How Much Time has Passed was written and uploaded weeks before the rest were uploaded. It is the largest collection of Blood fan fiction ever written, though many of them are short. None of these stories were written for The Crypt Fan Fiction Contest and were in fact written over nine years after that contest ended. More stories were added later, from Caleb Meets the Headless Thompson Gunner onward.
[edit] Short Stories

Three of the stories are set before Tchernobog's betrayal, another two are set during the events of Blood, four are set in between 1928 and 2028, and a final three are set during and after the events of Blood II. Included in the collection are also two crossovers, one merging the worlds of Blood II and Shogo: MAD, and another showing Caleb meeting a character from a Warren Zevon song.

[edit] Illustrations
The illustrations for Tome of Blood were originally drawn on paper by Hamish Wilson on April 26, 2008. They were then scanned onto a computer where they were digitally edited by Malcolm Wilson to create the current images. The Man in the Dark Hat depicts Caleb standing in front of the urban skyline of New Town, while Lost in the Wastes has Caleb looking for the other Chosen after he got lost from them in How Much Time has Passed. Both image's show Caleb's face being shrouded by the shadow cast by his hat, and with his hands in his trench coat pockets.
