Summary: Journey back to a time that never was, but should have been
Review: This is actually the third OGL book I have purchased for myself, the others being Cybernet and Conan. So far this is the best so far. A word of caution, Steampunk is their most ambitious project yet. From Background Points to Traits, races to classes, the book follows the genre step by step. Do you want to walk into a world like Sherlock Holmes would have found familiar? Or wander through the pages of a Charles Dickens novel as a character he might have forgotten to mention? Would you like to experience first hand the reality of LXG? Well, look no further than this book. Mongoose took elements of the classics (Wells, Verne, Doyle among the more marquee names) and combined elements of their tales into a narrative alternative reality of what could have been. Many of us know and love the setting and elements can easily be borrowed for other games but it stands on its own as well. It was well worth the wait and well worth the price I paid for and I highly recommend this to anyone who loves the genre of Steampunk or is merely curious about it. This book well worth the price.
