I received this supplement as a stretch goal for the Accursed: World of Morden kickstarter. Bone and Barrow is the final world book, covering Cairn Kainen and the Outlands, and it paints a pretty bleak picture that I think really sums up the darker elements (and locations) of the setting.
As usual there's a selection of new monsters, Edges and Hindrances, but this supplement also contains a rather novel game mechanic that's worth a special mention - a FFF card based system for generating new Outland states, using the Accursed double poker deck (with a dice-based fallback for those who don't have the deck). I'm a big fan of random tables, and I think the extra "crunch" in this case really helped balance out the descriptive "fluff", resulting in a book that feels well-rounded.
