An OK campaign adventure for Shadowrun and a foreshadowing on what is to come in Emergence.

This is one of the best Shadowrun campaign books to date, and it is an excellent tie in to the 4th Edition ruleset. A great source of background info for anyone interested in the Shadowrun universe.

This has to be one of the best Shadowrun plot books that I have ever read. They manage to bring to a close one of the oldest stories in the Shadowrun world while still leaving ample hooks (and ample secrets) of the new world the book leads in to. This book is critical for storytellers that want to understand exactly how Shadowrun 3rd Edition became Shadowrun 4th.

Ok, as an adventure setting or plot idea. I don't really know. I haven't run anything in this book. However, if you're a fan of the Shadowrun setting this is a book you can't miss. This book is the link between the Johnny Mnemonic style of the old edition into the new wireless world of 4th Ed. A great read nonetheless.

If you're going to go, go out with a bang.

This product is a fitting end to the plotlines and story that was written during the course of the Third Edition of Shadowrun. Not only do the events set up the timeline that would eventually arrive in Shadowrun Fourth Edition, but we also say farewell to some of the key players and movers and shakers in the Sixth World. The fiction is well-written, and several plot-hooks are available in each section dealing with the build-up and fallout from the biggest event to hit the Sixth World yet, a Crash of the wired Matrix. And while much of it deals with an ending to things (whether it is a beloved character or a hated enemy or a looming threat), it also deals with new beginnings, which sets up the upcoming timeline of Shadowrun Fourth Edition.

I personally get the feeling that this adventure, while open-ended enough to include runners of all types, was specifically made for the veteran runner at the prime or perhaps end of his/her career. Many of the threats seem over-the-top, and some can only be really tackled by the established runner who is willing to give it the best they've got.

I highly recommend this book for anyone who is a fan of the Sixth World. I would not recommend this book for folks who don't intend to play out the Sixth World past the year 2064.

It's the end of the (Sixth) world as we know it, and I feel fine.
