Mythras is one of the best RPG toolsets you will ever get. Versatile enough to simulate adequately almost any kind of game: Mythic and Historic Earth, High Fantasy, Low Fantasy, Grim and Gritty, Sword and Sorery, Sword and Sandal, Sci-Fi and to adjust each of those to your preferences.
The PDF is crazy cheap and brings so much bang for a low buck, it is probably the best deal you will have on an RPG.
First read of the book can seem a bit crunchy, but playing it will show how very well it flows. Getting Mythras Imperative first, running one or two adventures and then graduating to the full rule-set is a great way to do it, even if Imperative does not change much from the core book rules. It is just the trim-unfattened rule-set.
From over 30 years of playing RPG, this is my preferred system. By far.
Buy it. Play it. You will receive more than you bargained for.
