Exalted: The Abyssals

by Bryan Armor, Michael Kessler, Dawn Elliot

Born in the Shadowlands
Black disciples of the Deathlords, the Abyssal Exalted are the mailed fist of the dead. And yet they are also human, and many are tormented by the curse of their unholy power. Some walk among men as harbingers of the Deathlords, while others rebel against their destiny and ride as forlorn heroes of the living. Are the Abyssal Exalted the ultimate weapon of Oblivion or its ultimate nemesis?
Born to Destroy
The third in the series of hardbacks that makes the other types of Exalted available for play, Exalted: The Abyssals includes extensive detail on the underworld and the Deathlords—and the Abyssal Exalted as players characters. Inside is everything needed to portray these servants of darkness, from their black curse to rules for their powerful necromancy.

Reviews

[Mark Austin · Rating 3 out of 5]

★ - 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.
