Very in-depth

TheDude — Feb 9, 2008, 08:49 PM

This book contains a very in-depth look at the top-down world building process. It's thoroughly researched and provides a lot of information about the decisions that go into this kind of effort. The book makes the assumption that you are building a fantasy world with magic as a core component, and this assumption is with the authors from the beginning.

The real treasure of this book, in my opinion, is the appendix where you find lists of real and fantasy flora, fauna, gems, and substances. That alone was worth the price of the product. If you're looking for reference or inspiration on world building, this is the first place to go.
