Fan event also includes unveiling of new Camelot expansion, Labyrinth of the Minotaur

Electronic Arts today announced that best-selling fantasy author R.A. Salvatore will keynote the Dark Age of Camelot Roundtable Fan Gathering this September. Salvatore's books have sold more than fifteen million copies and include the beloved series The Hunter's Blades Trilogy, Icewind Dale Trilogy, and The Dark Elf Trilogy. The Roundtable Fan Gathering will take place at the Rio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, on September 29th and 30th.

R.A. Salvatore is one of the fantasy genre's most beloved and successful authors, and has attracted a tremendously loyal following through iconic characters such as the dark elf Drizzt Do'Urden. Salvatore's most recent original hardcover, The Promise of the Witch-King, Book II of The Sellsword Series, debuted on The New York Times best-seller list. At the Roundtable, Salvatore will speak about how he got started writing, his experiences with computer gaming and projects he is currently working on.

Walter Yarbrough, Producer of Dark Age of Camelot at EA Mythic commented, "R.A. Salvatore's keynote is the perfect addition to the Roundtable's festivities, and sure to please fantasy fans. Camelot's five year anniversary Roundtable is shaping up to be the best fan event yet, with an exclusive first-look at the upcoming expansion, Labyrinth of the Minotaur and activities for the whole family."

The Dark Age of Camelot Roundtable Fan Gathering offers fans the chance to meet developers and fellow players, and participate in Camelot-themed activities. Attendees will be able to preview the recently announced expansion, Labyrinth of the Minotaur, and win prizes from sponsors including NVIDIA, Creative Labs, Razer USA Ltd., Crucial Technology and more.
