This series has really impressed me, on the whole. At first glance I questioned paying $2 for a single new race, but this is not just a pile of stats and feats. Each race in the series gives you 15-20 pages of information, ranging from background, to relations, to land and language, to game stats... it's all here. The depth is impressive without being overbearing.

The Cyndarim are a ruthless, predatory, and powerful underwater race. For my part, I do a lot with aquatics... so getting more variety under the waves is always a plus. This was one of 2 very original aquatic races in this series.<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: Adds nice variety to an oft-neglected part of a campaign world. Could make an excellent challenge in a campaign, and has the potential for serious political impact for those who like to include such effects in their worlds.<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: Just the kinds of typos that could benefit from some manual (i.e. not spellcheck) editing. This particular race might also be of limited use from a playable standpoint... it's probably more suited to being an NPC group.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Very Good<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>
