Good resource for Eberron Players and DMs
18 May 2007
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
For anyone interested in psionics canon in Eberron, I'd highly recommend this book. There are a lot of NPCs and political information as well as some weapons and feats that may prove useful. It seems a little bit of a throw-back to forgotten realms style regional modules.
Downsides for me was that the material was very vague or limited, geographically, but fairly detailed politically. For example, they'll spend a tiny paragraph for a whole region that is leaking chaos into Eberron in Adar and has a lot of fantasy potential, then spend 5 pages talking about a political group that really, after reading it, isn't very interesting or have clear goals or themes.
For crunch, the PrCs and quori-related stuff seems a little tame...a lot more flavor than bang. Enough of the artwork is mediocre to remove it from the list of strengths.
I think I would have liked the book to be...bigger. There is a lot of material to cover and a lot of it gets short treatment or no treatment at all, but still a good book especially if you are interested in non-Khorvaire Eberron, as I am.

Secrets of Sarlona
12 April 2007
Format:Hardcover
I think this is an excelent product. I like the ideas that the dreaming dark present as villians and this book expands on those ideas. Both in how they would be used, and how to use those who would oppose them. I also appricate the inclusion of new quori that can be used with empty vessels to make enlightened. Finally I am a huge fan of psionics and many rule books include very little additional material on psionics, so I am excited about the additional psionic content in Secrets of Sarlona.

Secrets of Sarlonna Review
23 Mar 2009
Format:Hardcover
I bought this book to expand my Eberron game, and that's just what it did. There was something the psuedo-steampunk Eberron Campaign Setting was missing, and that's Asia. That's right, the Sarlonna world is essentially Asia, except its full of kalashtar and quori, magic like Korvairre, except with a religious flare to it. Its a nice addition to any collection, I only gave it 4 stars because of all the fluff involved (details which don't actually change gameplay.).
