This is a very lengthy chapter that goes into the setting of the game. Full blown short stories, however, aren’t one of my favorite additions to a game book. I don’t mind a page or two of fiction that directly ties into topics that are about to be introduced, and I really like “in universe” documents or essays used to convey information about the setting. If you have read some of my past reviews, you know my preference on this matter. The story itself is well told and amusing, and is a story about swordplay, romance, and swashbuckling. That’s six large pages of dual column print. The book starts out with a six-page short story. In addition to the two-page chapter spreads, there are several half page pieces of art. The formatting is attractive and easy to read. The pages are a light parchment, with headers written in faux handwriting. Each chapter starts with a two-page spread. The opening picture in the book is designed like a movie poster, complete with credits. The PDF comes in at 307 pages, including an Index, a map, and a character sheet. I only have the PDF copy for review now, although the hard cover has been available for some time now.
