Denizens of the Dreaming

Rating:
Summary: Good stuff, a little short.
Review: Denizens should have been the Year of the Reckoning book for Changeling. It hints at Dark Things Ahead, elaborates on Dark Things Before, and does a nice job of expanding material from Dreams and Nightmares. New Arts and kiths are also presented--kiths with a much more multicultural basis than the original Changeling spread, which was nice to see. Overall, the material is interesting, with moral ambiguity to taste (how DO you take races who sided with the Fomorians ages ago?).

The book's main flaw is lack of detail. Very little is given about the culture and organization of the Denizen races, and even a few more hints about their part of the Dreaming would have been nice. Unfortunately, the book also references that godawful Ravnos "metaplot," but that's forgiveable.

A little sketchy, but overall very good Changeling material.

Summary: FINALLY A BOOK THAT DOES CTD JUSTICE!
Review: This book is great! Just absolutely delectable! Wanna know what Sidhe were doing before the Resurgance? Wanna know what really happened during the War of Trees? Wanna know a lil more about the Formorians? Wanna know about the Courts of the Formori? Who are the Dark Nightmarish reflections of the Kithian? All this and more is answered in this book.

Additionally, we have new Kiths! Nartaka, Keremet, Fir Bolg, Fuath, Acheri, Moirae, and the Amodines. Also three new arts: The Autumn Way, Discord, and Oniero. A dark way of harvesting glamour: Reaping.

This book is the best Changeling book to come out this year, a must have for all Changeling players.
