Each issue has gotten better and better. In three short issues this e-mag is approaching the point of being a viable replacement for Dragon.

Kudos Wolfgang, kudos.

Just reading this makes my players want to jump right in and start. I'm holding them back until more material is produced because I know once we start they'll want to game more and more!

I normally purchase my pdf's from www.rpgnow.com or www.drivethrurpg.com (both are the same I know). I was on Paizo looking for a basic D&D module pdf and saw the Fantasia product line. I double checked to see if this product was on RPGNow or DriveThru and it wasn't. That should have been my first clue but I went ahead and ordered the three core books and a couple adventures.

I'll be the first to admit, I'm a total impulse buyer and I love fantasy heartbreakers (see the following link for a definition http://www.indie-rpgs.com/articles/9/ ).

I can tell a huge amount of work has gone into this product. I'm sorry to say a huge amount of bad work.

The writing is hard to understand for the majority of the book, the layout is awful - Times New Roman 11 font for the body and Dark Crystal (yes the 80's muppets movie) font for the chapter headings, a few of the names of inns, locales, etc are direct copies of existing fictional places, ex. The Pool of Radiance and The Rainbow Dragon Inn.

The product is obviously a labor of love but I'd return it if it wasn't a PDF.
