Atruly unique and awesome setting. Prob tied with the Dragon Blooded as my 2nd fave after the Abyssal book. If you like a sorta steampunk, FF, Technomagic setting, then this is for you!!!

This is absolutely one of the best books for Exalted 1st edition with regards to creativity of the setting. Not sure if it is playable, but it is worth reading just for the ideas (magical cyborgs, fantasy communist-theocracies). This is the steampunkt version of Exalted, and by far the most interesting place outside of Creation described for any Exalted version.
