Customer Reviews

A sourcebook done right.

The Seattle Sourcebook is perhaps the single best example of a setting book in RPG history. Rather than trying to force plots and unneeded NPC, all you get is a hard look at Seattle in 2050. Neighborhoods, businesses mundane and shadowy, local landmarks, weather, politics... everything needed to set any kind of adventure in the city. The book is only approved by the Wiki-like commentary added by "users" of this book. Some of the commentary is humorous, some can be adventure hooks, and some of course are blatant lies. But the method of presentation makes them flow naturally into the rhythm of the writing. Physically, the book lives up to FASA's high standards. Print is well laid out and easy to read. The artwork is standard for Shadowrun and of varying quality. The book is well organized. It is a pleasure to simply read.

For anyone wanting to run a serious game in the Shadowrun world, this is a must. Not because it's seattle, but because it contains great detailed information about the shadowrun community. And it also has some great maps for locations. Makes it real easy on gamemasters.
