If you've ever run a d20 roleplaying game, this book is a must-have!
I only just got my copy a few days ago, and after reading through it I'm going to incorporate several of the suggestions and houserules into my home Pathfinder game. A lot of houserules for expanding or simplifying the game, and rules for covering things that normal d20 and Pathfinder don't.
I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could for nitpicky things like a few errors that editors should have caught, but overall the advice, houserules, and crunch are all well thought-out, and even if a GM doesn't use anything as-is it's still very thought invoking. The book has really got me thinking on how I can improve my game, and at $5 it's totally worth checking out. Buy it before they run out.
I have recently purchased this book. It is an excellent source of additional rules for GM's. The information on Adjudicating Play in Chapter 2 is very good for beginner GM's and advanced GM's. Chapter 3 covers using prewritten adventures and homebrews. Chapter 4 covers NPC's. The Chapter I appreciate is Chapter 7 which covers Treasure and Magic Items. Chapter 7 also covers the possibility of changing magic item slots as designed for the different classes. There is a lot of useful information in this book and at $5 it is criminal to miss out on it. As the Old Used Car Salesman said, "Get it while you can".
