Lords of Chaos Once, the great lords of madness fielded an army vast beyond all reckoning. They scoured the corners of chaos for warriors to throw against the hateful edifice of shaped reality. When the wards around Creation wavered during the Great Contagion, the Fair Folk rushed forward to ensure cataclysm and were defeated. Princes of the Wyld Now, in the twilight of the Age of Heroes, the ruined courts of the Unformed Fair Folk prepare for a final, glorious crusade against Creation. Exalted: The Fair Folk provides detailed rules for roleplaying nobles and commoners in the faerie courts on the edges of Creation. Trapped between the hostile reality of Creation and the impending rush of the Faerie host, the Fair Folk of the Middlemarches must make their own fate as the Time of Tumult unfolds around them.

★ - Most books with this rating I never finish and so don't make this list. This one I probably started speed-reading to get it over with. ★★ - Average. Wasn't terrible, but not a lot to recommend it. Probably skimmed parts of it. ★★★ - Decent. A few good ideas, well-written passages, interesting characters, or the like. ★★★★ - Good. This one had parts that inspired me, impressed me, made me laugh out loud, made me think - it got positive reactions and most of the rest of it was pretty decent too. ★★★★★ - Amazing. This is the best I've read of its genre, the ones I hold on to so I can re-read them and/or loan them out to people looking for a great book. The best of these change the way I look at the world and operate within it.
