This was neither balanced nor objective. It reads like a pro-elf propaganda book. They can do so much, they have such potential, they are lazy and have a philosophy of inaction but can easily become experts in anything and masters of magic and the bow. I find it all a little unbelievable that the isolationists who distrust and look down upon outsiders (and even look down upon the elves that encounter outsiders) could truly be so proficient, widely-skilled, wise and all-knowing. That the gods are desperate for the attentions of the fence-sitters was laughable, even more so that the average elf can bargain and make pacts with the gods if in trouble. Don't they have quite the powerful position, aren't the elves in such a great spot as the gods wait on their every word? The prestige class was an over-powered joke, allowing a pick and choose of some truly powerful abilities, and for elves to get around their weak hp with a nice boost to natural ac.
1 star. With their weaknesses and lack of specialisation (they all farm, they all fence, they all are beautiful dandies) it stands as one of those illogical situations in Golarion that they haven't been invaded and scattered. They are unjustly too proud, and it comes across very clearly in the writing.
