I bought the soft cover version of this book and I am not disappointed! Great print quality and sturdy pages, with a lot of lore about gladiators, games and arenas in the dark Sun setting. There are also rules and mecanics for 2e Dark Sun setting, but the lore is more prevalent, so it can be useful for a Dark Sun adventure set in any D&D edition. My main gripe with the book is a detail : the Drajan arena and palace are not at all how they are represented in the Dark Sun boxed set (which was way cooler as well) : the palace is supposed to look like an Aztec temple with an arena integrated on one side. But that is so minor compared to what the book has to give that I can't really remove a star for this.

I don't play anymore, but I can remember these Dark Sun books from when I was kid (who was too young to play them). Don't know if you remember, but the now discontinued campaing was (in my memory at least) THE face of D and D for a while there. So for kicks I bought this as a stroll down the lane. It is a decent read, though the art is rather poor (notable exception are the full color pages which I believe are from Brom, they are very nice). For the price you can't beat it, but it will remind you why 2nd Ed. was eventually replaced. <br><br> <b>LIKED</b>: Nostalgia, gladiators rock, good background<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: Mostly poor artwork<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>
