Where to download LoH?

Ok, since SN is pretty much dead, and I'm interested in trying LoH again, I was wondering, where would I go to download it these days?

thanks

Looks to me like it's still available at a lot of places online:

"lands of hyperborea" download on Google gets a lot of hits.

By the way, Xaa, as I was glancing through those Google links, I noticed a hit at Amazon and followed it. It's their main Dungeon Siege II sales page. I found it interesting to note that the VERY FIRST customer review, the one voted most helpful, has the following comments:

This review ... is mostly a comparison with the original DS1, and with the Legends of Aranna (LoA) expansion pack and the Lands of Hyperborea (LoH) mod.
...
DS1, then, was a very pretty and easy to play slash'n'hack, that proved addictive to many, despite its many faults: It wasn't complex, it was mostly very linear, and the 3D engine had one annoying quirk - you couldn't look 'up', or even straight ahead - the view was always, at best, slightly down.

LoA was a very bad move. I didn't improve on the 3D problem, and although it was probably even prettier than the original, it was desperately easy to play - and utterly saturated with giveaways. Not a good game.

Far better was the freebie download, LoH. Not the easiest install, and initially quite boring to play, after a while it starts to grip far more than the original game. It's very big, far less linear, and far more intelligent; and the storyline matters. Also, the engine was tweeked to allow a close to horizontal view.
...
It takes a while to kick in, and I've yet to see whether it's any better than LoA should have been, but I do like it. However LoH2 will probably be better...
