I kick back to let you know what I think of the second edition of The Glorantha Sourcebook, for RuneQuest, from Chaosium Inc. The volume contains loads of information about the world of Glorantha including the history, lands, deities, magic, races, and lots more.

TGG SCORE

Summary

The second edition of The Glorantha Sourcebook is an excellent resource for any game master aiming to run adventures in Greg Stafford's famed fantasy world. It's important to note, although the volume bears the RuneQuest trade dress, this is actually system agnostic book. All in all, the sourcebook is a very, very enjoyable read.
