Last year, I finished a graphic novel about Machiavelli. I'm now running a Kickstarter to fund a print edition (and a nice ebook edition as well). If you like history, or graphic novels, or politics, you may enjoy it! (You play Eve, it's about Machiavelli...)

Here's the Kickstarter page: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/325728729/machiavelli-a-graphic-novel

You can visit my site, where you can read Machiavelli in its entirety and see if you like it: http://donmacdonald.com

Thanks so much!

You've been studying us. Cool

Do you think much of Machiavelli's assertions would have played out well in Eve or has the player base missed the mark? I wonder sometimes how natural this stuff is, or isn't.

No offense OP, but Machiavelli is not something I am interested in reading a graphic novel about. I have read too much of his stuff in black and white to think that some artwork, no matter how good I think it is (it does looks nice by the way), will 'make' it.

I find his thoughts very interesting and spot on in certain aspects but I can not pull my wallet out to help on this one. My apologies and my sicerest best wishes as I know what you have done is no small feet by any stretch of the imagination.

To Herzog, I belive EvE is a very Machiavellian Universe to put it simply.

I have to side with Slade on this one.
