What The Critics Say
-
"There is a line on the dust jacket of the Guide to Glorantha that reads; ‘Glorantha is the technicolor cure for bland, pseudo-medieval generic fantasy.’ Normally when you read something like this, you can be forgiven for thinking it is self-aggrandizing, pretentious crap. Not in this case. If you have any doubts, all you need do is look at exhibit A, The Smoking Ruin & Other Stories. Seriously. You can open to any random page and find proof that--yes Toto--you aren't in Thedas, or Middle-earth, or Faerûn any more."
— Andrew Logan Montgomery, Exploring the Otherworlds of Fiction, Magic, and Gaming.
-
"Buy, prepare, and play immediately; do not let it linger on your bookshelf... Both setting and system deliver on everything they promised. The backstories go deep into the core of the adventures, the challenges are unique, the flavour is one-of-a-kind, the colours are vibrant, and the smells are breathtaking."
— Antonios S., RPGNet Review.
-
"The wait has definitely been worth it. The three scenarios it contains are all begging to be played..."
— Reviews from R'lyeh, Review - Smoking Ruin and Other Stories.
