Great little book for advice to new and regular keeper and a valuable asset to the game.
Great resource for the novice or experienced keeper alike. Looking forward to dusting it off for my next game
For added fun: Sean Branney autographed my copy. My sanity is assured
This book is a great reference for any keeper in a CoC game. I should have bought this years ago.
Nice little book of tips for both new and experienced Call of Cthulhu keepers.
This book is a treasure trove. It's the kind of thing you can open to any page and get a great idea or be reminded of something cool about running games you forgot. If I get to run a game again I'm going to use this to improve my game. Part of that will be the use of props, which I never had access to before these wonderful maniacs set up this society.
