Hi , I am pretty new to Eve and i have always loved to read lore about any mmorpg i play. I have been searching in forums and internet for some decent Lore or background story about Eve and its 4 races.

All i could find was mini cinimatic trailer about the different Races.

Wondering if there are any and could any one share some pointers ??

A games lore which is 10 + yrs old is worth a read.

Thanks.


As someone else already said, buy EVE: Source already, that book has all you could ever want to know about the lore, in one condensed form with lots of beautiful pictures.

Read the 3 published books too \o/

Reading the first one (The Empyrean Age - Tony Gonzales) was what got me started playing in the first place. :D

Got "Eve:Source" but I can't say it's a great book. The binding is crap, cracked already in my case (and, yes. i laid it on flat surfaces only), right in the middle of this algos schematic. X Most of the pictures are just ingame screenshots/renders or wallpapers you can find on eveonline.com. The font is somewhat small and not easy to read. The pages are so thick, they feel like thin carton. Would have been better if they had used thinner, non-gloss paper but more pages so that they could have used a larger font and added more (concept) art. Content wise it's rather ok. You should be able to get most of the info from the wikis lore section.

If the Jove count as a race then there is at most 2

the other one is the PC Master Race.
