By Keith Baker, James Wyatt, Bill Slavicsek

An entirely new campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragonsreg; roleplaying game. During the spring and summer of 2002, Wizards of the Coast, Inc., put out a request to the gaming community for proposals for a new D&D game setting. 11,000 proposals and two years of development later, the Eberron Campaign Setting is the result of that search. This brand-new setting for the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game is an avenue for any D&D fan to experience swashbuckling adventure and explore mysterious new territories. Designed to introduce a new, fresh world with unlimited possibilities for exploration, the Eberron Campaign Setting includes everything needed to develop characters and run campaigns in this exciting new arena. It includes new character races, monsters, prestige classes, feats, organizations, and equipment unique to the world, and it introduces a new base class to the D&D game. It contains substantial information on new elements of magic, including spells, domains, items, artifacts, and more. Also included are historical and cultural details of the world, along with extensive illustrations and a wealth of maps that put the setting into vivid context. This title will also include both adventure hooks and a full adventure so that players and Dungeon Masters can immediately begin enjoying everything this rich new setting has to offer.

The World is Ours for the Taking!

I am really excited about this new fantasy world called Eberron. I was one of the many writers that took part in the contest that heralded this work of works, and I'm glad they didn't pick my idea. Keith Baker has given us a new world, unique in many aspects, presented nicely by Wizards in a 320 page package. I would like to say first that Eberron excites me most by opening up new avenues for more writers to reach the limelight...

A Very Exciting Campaign Setting

A good campaign setting for Dungeons and Dragons should do three things: 1. Be a useful resource to the Dungeon Master. 2. Stay within the boundaries of D & D, yet be different from what has already been published. 3. Get the players excited about their characters and the DM excited about the world. Eberron does all of these things. The book is well laid out and contains much useful information. The only part lacking is...

Brilliance in a Bound Cover

Surprisingly, it has delivered and done so with style and grace.The first thing to remember is that Eberron is a campaign setting, not the new face of D & D that negates what came before. Eberron is an option, a world that actually feels modern while staying true to the roots of magic. In Eberron, there are constructs (magic powered robots)...

Worth the Hype! Well done Wizards of the Coast and Mr. Baker

Wizards of the Coast (WOTC) scores big with the new Eberron Campaign Setting, this is more than a setting; it is a completely fresh way for D & D aficionados to play the game. I do not want to include too many spoilers because in no way can I give this volume any justice.The Illustrations are done very well and enhance the entire book. The artwork is part of what makes this book so fresh. The artwork really portrays the...
