Title: Just not that good
Review: Some years after releasing the Amber Rulebook, Shadow Knight came out. The Amber Rulebook spawned a legion - small but rabid - of players of the game, and Shadow Knight was eagerly purchased by said players.As one of those players, I cannot help but be disappointed by the book. It's not because I don't like the source material (the 2nd chronicles), but it's because the book is just disappointing.It's too little, too late. Anyone who is a serious Amber gamer already had their own rules and variants worked out, and the sourcebook doesn't seem to really be above them. I find it a lot worse in fact.It's useful for the odd idea about adding to the game of Amber, but only buy it if you're a junkie who has to have everything on the topic.
