I set to work writing reviews today. I want to apologize to all the publishers that I haven't yet written reviews for products I've purchased or been given. Goal for the weekend is to get 5 done. First up, Mythic Hero's Handbook.
Thanks for the great review, Fig! I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the other two mythic books.
Another review:
Treasures of NeoExodus: Infinite Fury by Louis Porter Jr. Design
Have fun!
Thanks for the review.
Finished writing an in-depth review for Secrets of the Masquerade Reveler on Min-Max Boards, GiantITP, and RPGnet message boards.

I have noticed that nobody has reviewed The Very Last Book About War.
I'd like to compare notes to other "war" books that populate the 3pp scene.

Thanks Libertad! Secrets of the Masquerade Reveler was a major labor of love for me, since I love fey and I love giving martial characters more options out of combat. I'm thrilled that it's had such a great reception!
I ran an investigation game a few months ago, and the reveler was gathering some great information (a combination of excellent social skills and creative use of plantspeech). Not bad for a barbarian!

It's on my "to buy" list (I'm really looking forward to comparing and contrasting with the Legendary Games products), but my gaming budget is really tight right now (having thrown down for hardcovers and PDFs of the Mythic Mania books, and Kickstarting Legendary Planet), so I can't actually afford it for the moment.

You're that guy who makes all those CharOp Class Guides. I didn't know you wrote Masquerade Reveler until you mentioned it!
I guess you learn something new everyday.
As of now I'm waffling between continuing my Path of War review, or trying to start fresh with another product. This time I'm leaning towards Red Dragon Inn: Guide to Inns & Taverns.
Two years ago on Min-Max Boards I once reviewed the Genius Guide to Horrifically Overpowered Feats based solely on the judgment of its title. I found about half the feats do not live up to the title, and looking back I feel that I was a bit too critical in that a fair amount of them can actually be used to good effect in regular campaigns.
So I decided to do a new review on Paizo, reviewing the parts I found genuinely overpowered vs. the ones which weren't and how they stack up.

I did one for the Faces of the Tarnished Souk collection. I'm a bit slow lately. My computer keeps dying from the summer heat so I'm reading pdfs on my tablet and writing reviews at my work computer.
I'm going to see if I can get a review done right now. I've been gathering my thoughts on a particular product for a while, now, and since I'm back from holiday (with only a tablet for Internet) I can get 'er done.
Path of Shadows reviewed. Looking forward to seeing more from Ascension Games.

Thanks for the review, Chemlak! I hope my future products live up to expectations. And thank you to everyone else who has reviewed Path of Shadows and all of the other third-party books out there; I'm sure plenty of 3PP agree that it's always great to see your works appreciated by others.
Masquerade Reveler and Path of War now have front-page reviews on RPGnet. Go check them out!

Another review, this time for a very good adventure:
Journey to Cathreay by Four Dollar Dungeons
Have fun!

I *just* found out about the existence of this thread.
To note, my 2 Pathfinder groups and I have purchased literally *hundreds* of PF & 3.5 3PP products over the years. Being such colossal consumers of this niche specialty industry, we should be ashamed of ourselves for not posting more reviews and helping to showcase & proliferate all the wonderful 3PP talent out there. Especially since our PF gaming tables are about 60% 3PP and 40% Paizo in content at this point. So we certainly do have a vested interest in seeing 3PP thrive.
Recently, I've posted reviews for Dance Macabre (4 Dollar Dungeons), Bite Me! Playing Lycanthropes (Misfit Studios) and a few Raging Swan Press goodies. So I'll try to up my game like all of you have. :-) Plus, I'll gently twist the arms of my players to do the same.
Next up, I'll probably be reviewing some more Raging Swan Press products. I have yet to find one I haven't fallen in love with. And I'll certainly try to also wax poetic about some of my other favorites such as Purple Duck Games, Everyman Gaming, 4$ Dungeons, Rite Publishing, etc.

That would be awesome, Crai! Thanks so much!

I just posted a new review of:
Ping me if you would like to review: Bite Me! The Gaming Guide to Lycanthropes.
Yes, yes, yes to the reviews. Even a really short blurb is awesome.
After a way too long RL-related pause, finally a new review:
Ultimate Relationships 2: The Viking Shieldmaiden
Have fun!
While at it another part of Ultimate Relationships:
Ultimate Relationships 1: The Lonely Lyrakien
Have Fun!
I just posted a review of a release by Flaming Crab Games. It's called: Dragon's Hoard: Magic Arms & Armor.
Thanks for the review, Oliver.

Stumbled across a copy of Wicked Fantasy by John Wick and Gillian Fraser at the local game store. I found I really needed to review it, as it's rare for me to experience such glorious highs and disappointing lows within a single product.
It is an amazing read, and an unfortunately very poor rules resource. Probably the first game sourcebook my wife and I have ever just sat and read cover to cover.
Reviewed The Very Last Book About War.
Ultimate Charisma reviewed. Such a good book, I can't praise it enough.
Thanks! :D

Always a pleasure, Alex! Huge fan of your work. And I'm trying to get reviews done on my recent purchases, so more to come.
Reviewed Mythic Monsters: Heavenly Host by Legendary Games. Sometimes I wish my players weren't totally into playing good guys...

I have to admit I've slowly been learning about the value of reviews and such, and they're seriously gratifying to see as a writer. From the entirely deserved bashing of the Chi Warrior to the shining reviews for the Kineticists of Porphyra series, I've learned a lot over the past 6 months.
I'm honestly game to do reviews as well, although I have a few more that I owe Storm Bunny Studios, as their campaign setting is hype as hell.
