Chivalry Tarnished
Knights, fair maidens, heroic adventures, and righteous quests—these are the legends of old Taldor. But the once powerful empire has fallen from its former glory. Now rival nobles battle each other with bitter knights and proxy armies for personal power rather than honor. A smoldering truce with Qadira again threatens to ignite into war, and Taldor’s daughter states look down upon her with contempt. Yet there is still greatness in Taldor, a stone foundation under the flaking gold adornments. Sons and daughters of forgotten royal bloodlines hear change on the wind—but is it the whisper of greatness to come, or the death rattle of an empire long past its prime?
This Pathfinder Companion describes the country of Taldor and its capital of Oppara. Become one of the Lion Blades, a secret agent prestige class for the empire! Learn the magic of the oppressed church of the Dawnflower! Rise to greatness from humble origins with new feats! Gain the ostentatious magic of Taldor’s wealthy elite! Taldor needs champions—are you ready for the challenge?
Written by Joshua J. Frost

This smallish supplement is an excellent guide to Taldor. The descriptions of the country are vivid and bring to life the images of an old and once glorious empire whose time has passed. I especially liked the old canal system and the mercenary pirates out to get the Qadiran ships.
This is a excellent resource for players who want ideas on character background or for DMs for adventure ideas.
I am really loving this product. Sure, there are knights and chivalry, but there is clearly a Byzantine influence in the design. The artwork is evocative and I love the maps, Oppara especially. I am seriously considering starting a new campaign in this region.
Taldor is my new favorite country thanks to this book. A great mix of fluff and crunch. There are a lot of seeds for adventures in this book.

Nice! Even if I wasn't planning on joining the Taldor faction in the Pathfinder Society, I'd still be really looking forward to this. Can't wait!

It's good that we throw the poor subjects of that scarred and bitter land the occasional bone. Small reminders of their long-past glory days should at least keep them placated.
I mean, if we don't use soft power to keep up their morale, we'd eventually need to invade and liberate the poor bastards before they killed themselves.
You know how it is.

That is what we will do with your country and Taldor eventually!
Freedom is overrated. People need rules and those who enforce the rules. And only Cheliax can provide both!

Off course what you peasants don't realise is that our natural superiority will eventually lead to our regaining our preeminent position on the world stage.
Oh and I would like to complain about our language being referred to as common

Ah, the squabbling of children. And the benevolent father watches with a smile, egging them on. As usual, age and experience trump youth and enthusiasm.
