Lancea Sanctum (Vampire: The Requiem)

Alan Alexander

White Wolf Publishing, 2005

First covenant book released, but an incredibly strong book
This book details the covenant Lancea Sanctum- its history, the reasons why Kindred join it, the roles of the clans in the covenant, how one joins, its relation to other factions in the World of Darkness, and various in-covenant factions, bloodlines, and heresies. ...

Exalted 2nd Abyssals (Exalted Second Edition)

Alan Alexander, Carl Bowen, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2008

Amazing Corebook
Exalted Abyssals (Exalted Second Edition) This is an amazing corebook. Period. Has a lot of ideas, potential, cool Charms (although most are Mirrors of the Solar Charms) and good view of what the Deathlords are, their plans, metaplot, ideas, vague description of ...

Second Sight (World of Darkness)

David Hicks, Alan Alexander, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2007

I love this book!
Second Sight is a great book to use with any WOD setting. It has some really nice rules for psychic abilities and "low magic" that is nowhere near what a true WOD Mage can do. Both systems are very simple and very well designed. The following is a bit of ...

The Underworld (The Compass of Celestial Directions)

Alan Alexander, Dawn Elliot, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2008

A surprisingly rich setting
This entry in the Compass of Celestial Directions series follows its forebears in presenting a supernatural setting within (or in this case, beneath) Exalted's Creation. In this book there are stats for various sorts of ghosts, both benign and malign, more info on the ...

Manual of Exalted Power: Sidereals

Alan Alexander, Carl Bowen, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2007

Superb Book, Some Mechanics Difficulties
Those not familiar with Exalted, please seek out the Core Rulebook first. The Second Edition update of the Sidereals is a superb book, made much more readable, understandable, and enjoyable by the removal of information on Yu-Shan to the Compass of Celestial ...

Exalted, Second Edition

Alan Alexander

White Wolf Publishing, 2006

Exalted 2nd Edition
If you're tired of the archtypical Fantasy RPG, if you like Anime and Manga, and want to be able to destroy armies single-handedly, then Exalted is for you. Unlike other RPGs where you begin barely able to hold your own against an angry goblin, in Exalted you begin as ...

Exalted Dreams of the First Age (Exalted)

John Chambers, Dawn Elliot, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2008

First Age Fantastic!
Exalted is my favorite setting from White Wolf, and after years of waiting and wondering what the First Age truly had to offer its inhabitants, now we get a glimpse of the grandeur and power that existed before the Usurpation. The ideas this accessory spawned for my ...

Scion God (Scion)

Alan Alexander, Carl Bowen, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2008

A beautiful and amazing book
Having read the previous review below (or above) I had to post a review myself. This game is the final of a trilogy of books that cover an amazingly popular and IMO well developed role playing game. Herein you play the scion (or son) of a god of myth. Whether you ...

Blood or Mead

Alan Alexander Beck

CreateSpace, 2008

book excerpt
hi I haven't been able to get a excerpt of the book up so I'll just do it as a comment for the time being. This is what I have from before I sent it to the publishing company so it will a little different in the book I'm finishing off a bottle of Jameson as I take ...

Exalted: Compass of Celestial Directions 3, Yu-Shan

Alan Alexander, Eric Brennan, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2008

A Detailed Look at a Very Different sort of Heaven
I cannot speak for others, but I was profoundly pleased with Compass of Celestial Directions III: Yu-Shan. Editing errors abound (as always with White Wolf) but the entire book makes for an enthralling read. The chapters provide a discussion of history, a discussion ...

Exalted BoS 1 Wonders of the Lost Age (Exalted)

Alan Alexander, Kraig Blackwelder, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2006

Amazing book....
This book is packed full of incredible devices for any one who enjoys Exalted. The book has a wealth of knolage from the first age as well as the age of sorrows. The book has a few sections in it that divide the items by uses, that is the only way i can ...

Errors, Medicine and the Law

Alan Merry, Alexander McCall Smith

Cambridge University Press, 2001

Getting real about medical error
When someone is hurt during medical treatment it is an understandable reaction to blame the doctor for the harm. However, the great majority of errors which occur in medicine are a simple consequence of conscientious doctors being fallible human beings just like the ...

The Manual of Exalted Power: Dragon-Blooded (Exalted Second Edition)

Alan Alexander, Kraig Blackwelder, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2006

A great book
All in all, I'm enjoying the 'recasting' of Exalted, and this book is no exception. This book greatly expands on the first edition book, and with the Realm setting shunted off into a companion volume (Compass of Celestial Directions 1: the Blessed Isle), the extra room ...

Exalted 2nd Storytellers Companion (Exalted)

Alan Alexander, Zach Bush, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2006

Yes, this time it's useful
If you were a Storyteller for the 1st edtition of Exalted, you may well wonder if it's worth getting this book. Let's face it, the 1st edition Storyteller's Companion was a mishmash of stuff that was largely superseded and made obsolete by later supplements. Well, ...

Exalted Terrestrial Directins 2 The West (Compass of Terrestrial Directions)

Alan Alexander, Eric Brennan, ...

White Wolf Publishing, 2007

The new face of the West
Like many things in Exalted Second Edition the West has also gotten an entirely new face. No longer are the only things described the Lintha and a scant reference to the Tya. Here we get a thorough background of all the major islands and their histories. The back story ...
