An interesting book to think with. I like the magical world and its grounding in real-world occult thinking. Its metaphysics are certainly better thought-out than anything in the World of Darkness, for example. Unfortunately real world esotericism is often racist and incredibly elitist, and this game definitely drunk from that well. Reading this book, I was sometimes struck with the idea that the book wanted you to play the bad guys, but was unaware of it.

This the english translation of the First French Edition. A quite old version, but the only one accesible in English. In comparision the Original game renewed itself a many time. But the principle and the world are still great, if you like occultism. And I recommend to use the previous incarnation periods for great campaigns.
