<grin> Care to back up that assertion?  I would personally say the second most useful book is "[[/GamesOfDivinity|Games of Divinity]]", because it details every non-Exalted supernatural being ever, and the demons are incredibly original.  "Scavenger Sons" is great, but it's all flavour, and although it's cool, none of it is particularly startling or brilliant.  It's the kind of thing that a talented fan could have done just as well.  I mean, not to say it's not awesome; it's full of inspiration and it's extremely well-written; it's just not the <b>best</b> supplement.<br>~ [[Shataina]]

Mini-Review by BrilliantRain

Other than mentioning that this book is the second most useful exalted book ever I don't really have much to say about it. The most useful is, obviously, the core book.

Comments on the Mini-Review by BrilliantRain

<grin> Care to back up that assertion? I would personally say the second most useful book is "Games of Divinity", because it details every non-Exalted supernatural being ever, and the demons are incredibly original. "Scavenger Sons" is great, but it's all flavour, and although it's cool, none of it is particularly startling or brilliant. It's the kind of thing that a talented fan could have done just as well. I mean, not to say it's not awesome; it's full of inspiration and it's extremely well-written; it's just not the best supplement.

Well technically I guess either of them could qualify. My game happens to be set in the threshold and Nexus but doesn't involve lots of spirits and demons so I find it more useful. I also just really, really enjoyed reading it. However if you do use lots of demons and stuff well then you obviously need some GoD in your life.  :) Just a little joke. At any rate I belive both of those are on the list of essential supliments as suggested by the creator as archived at Thus Spake Zargrabowski/EssentialSupplements.
