Dragon Age: Asunder has been announced as a third book based on the hit Dragon Age universe from Bioware.

This fiction novel will be written by David Gaider, lead writer at BioWare and author of the two previous novels (The Stolen Throne and The Calling), and released later this year by Tor Books.

To quote:

David Gaider’s previous two Dragon Age novels, Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne (March 2009) and Dragon Age: The Calling (October 2009) were well-received by fans and did much to establish the dark, heroic nature and epic scale of the Dragon Age Universe. Dragon Age: Asunder builds directly on the story from the second game, expanding and illuminating new corners of the world Thedas.

A mystical killer stalks the halls of the White Spire, the heart of templar power in the mighty Orlesian Empire. To prove his innocence, Adrian reluctantly embarks on a journey into the western wastelands that will not only reveal much more than he bargained for but change the fate of his fellow mages forever.

Fans of BioWare are invited to visit the official Dragon Age website where they can preview the upcoming novel and find additional information about Dragon Age: The Stolen Throne, Dragon Age: The Calling and more.
