Looking for a List of Lore Resources
Lore forum
Posted on July 3, 2019, 12:36 p.m. by Daveslab2022
I’ve recently gotten into the lore of magic, just reading whatever I can find on the Magic Mothership.
I was wondering if any body had a comprehensive list of articles or places I could read about the lore. I’ve read a basic synopsis of the MTG Timeline, but it doesn’t go as in depth as I feel it could. The articles on the magic website, specifically about New Phyrexia are wonderfully written and enticing, but I can’t find a way to see them in order so I could read through the correct way.

@Mj3933 thank you! Sadly that’s what I meant when I said I was reading on the magic website. They either link to nothing, or are incredibly weak stories with very little details of what really happening within the story.
I read stories like this:
https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/uncharted-realms/lost-confession-2013-09-11
Which are awesome and exactly what I’m looking for, but they are few and far between. All the links they post on those articles also lead to nowhere. When I go to the archive they either aren’t in order or contain a bunch of articles I’m not interested in.

Daveslab2022, I find that with alot of names so I just 'Copy Link Text' instead of guessing lol. I'm not sure though where you'd find those if they are not in the story archive itself though. Good read.

I guess I’ll just have to spend more time actually browsing their hundreds of articles haha. Thanks again!

There is an MTG wiki that I used to read. You can go through individual characters' stories/biographies and follow links to learn about other characters and events as you happen upon them.
In the articles archive on the Magic site you can search by column. Look for Magic Story and Uncharted Realms. Those should get you all the article based stories about as far back as Return to Ravnica which I believe is when they switched from novels to articles.
If you want the War of the Spark prequel stories, I created a thread with information and links.

Story Archive
Also there are novels post online stories. Well, there's a new one too about war of the spark, also you'll find there a thing you can sign up to for a preview of the next novel which is a prequel to WotS.
Hope that helps.
