Ordered the POD hardcover. The print quality is poor. The letters are blurry instead of crisp.

It looks like a crappy print from an old inkjet printer that has a bad alignment. Blurred and ghosted text abound.

Disappointing, especially concerning the cost of the print.

A reviewer said that this product contains writing of a quality inferior to that of other OSR products. That reviewer is dead wrong.

This is one of the few RPG materials that can be read as one would read a novel. The beginning features a fictional account of a "humble" traveller which had me spellbound.

Anyone who has read the Travels of Ibn Battuta, Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino, or the Travels of Marco Polo will find him or herself in familiar territory. Inferior writing? The author mimics with great skill the style of these classic authors who have been immortalized.

I no Earthly idea what kind of yardstick the other reviewer was using.

The book takes a Do-It-Yourself approach, giving a GM the raw materials and directions with which he or she can create his or her own unique Yoon-Suin campaign. Directions are given to utilize the various sections to roll dice on a multitude of evocative lists, nudging the GM to use imagination and inspiration to flesh out scenarios, NPCs, conflicts, hooks, etc.

I recommend this book highly, if only for the edification of reading the introductory travel account. Very imaginative, inspired and inspiring, and well-constructed.

Going through the book, I found myself feeling the same level of excitement I felt as a kid with AD&D and Gamma World material.

The system looks really good (you need the core book, this is a supplement). It feels like a combination of the best of Fate Core and Savage Worlds. I've been looking for a game that is a bit crunchier and less open ended than Fate Core. Savage Worlds was looking good to me, but there was something about it that just didn't fit for me personally.

Ubiquity looks like it may be my next favorite system.

This supplement contains a great deal of wonderful content and fantastic art.

The world contains an enormous amount of personality and spirit which is brought to life here. So much content is borrowed from so many sources, yet the book manages to create a sense of coherency. It comes across as being its own thing rather than some Frankenstein's monster, which is a danger for this kind of synthetic material. It is dynamic instead of chaotic.

That is a great accomplishment, I think.

Judge for yourself by taking a look at the sample characters from Exile's website.
