Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Decent Book
Review: This book is pretty much a rehash of stuff already out. That being said there are some new things...it is bascially defenders of the divine 3.5. It's a good book and being hard cover is a hell of a lot more durable than the old soft cover thing. All the classes inside are up dated.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: must have for 3.5
Review: This pretty well nails the coffin closed for "Defenders of the Faith". It updates most Prestige classes, and adds some very interesting new ones.

It also has some very cool new feats, and some stuff on the Greyhawk pantheon- which is good if you're in that world. Personally, I think that was a waste for most of us.

I'd give it a 4 if it wasn't for some terrible editing. There are some glaring typos, two of which woudl be game-breakers if read "as is". One spell (Miasma) that forgot to add the fact there is a Fort save. And a feat(Divine Metamagic) that if read wrong (yes, you do have to have the metamagic feat first, and yes it only works on divine spells) makes it a killer.

There is no excuse for this slipshod editing on a hardcover book of this price.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A mixture of old and new
Review: While this book contains some old stuff from D&D 3.0 (updated to 3.5), it also contains a lot of new material. The writers collected a lot of info on the divine spellcasters from various older books and magazines (a good thing, as you do not have to carry tons of books and magazines), and also added new ideas and value to the game. Some ideas in the book (like most PrCs) are "only for role players", and power gamers will find several things not really useful. Also, the chapter on the divine world and the role of religion in the D&D world is mainly useful for beginners (but experienced gamers may also find some ideas useful).
