The Eberronicon is an essential resource for anyone interested in running Eberron campaigns. Not only is it a digestible source of information, but it empowers you to find more information in the various Eberron sourcebooks if you want to learn more. The only downside to the Eberronicon is that it is not up-to-date with some of the more recent publications. That said, this should not deter you from buying this book. The content in the Eberronicon is vast and will be sufficient for anyone looking for foundational knowledge on the Eberron campaign setting.

Eberronicon is a perfect product for what it sets out to do: take the sometimes overwhelming, lengthy (and INCREDIBLE!!!) lore of the Eberron setting, and make it entirely accessible for newcomers.

I'm someone very steeped in the lore of Eberron and own a good 5-6 sourcebooks for it, so personally I enjoy reading through times of lore for really interesting settings. But that's because 1. I'm a nerd 2. I GM the setting, so it's important for me to know the nuances and details so I have many options at my disposal. But this becomes a nightmare situation to introduce new players to Eberron who are either casually interested, or don't have the time or money to spend on immersing themselves in the rich lore books from the 3.5e, 4e, 5e D&D settings.

Enter Eberronicon, the perfect pocket size manual (about 55 pages) that is both welcoming to newcomers, extremely well written, ultra intuitive in both content and layout, and really nails a wonderful balance between presenting a ton of information, but doing so economically so newcomers can intake the setting well and have great information about it. Highly recommend in every way!

A lovely Pocket Guide with all the information you could ever need for quickly referencing or brainstoming ideas! The references at the back of the book are as amazing as everyone states they are.

Even if you forsake all of the great lore in this book, it is still worth it just for the references at the back. It references pretty much all of the canon and kanon material available in a one-stop shop.

The amount of Eberron lore out there is spread across so many different sources as to be completely overwhelming. Having this summary to read, and then point me in the right direction to read up on particular aspects of lore has been SO helpful.

Hands-down one of the best suppliments for planning an Eberron game. The fact the information is sourced makes it easy to go digging for specific rules or more information. I bought this for myself because I love the setting, but a friend of mine mentioned she may want to GM an Eberron game and I gave this to her to help her research. She also agrees it has been invaluable.

Eberron Pokedex.

That's it.

Buy it.

Quit reading reviews and buy this damn thing.

This is a wonderful resource that saves you so much time and money, and accurate to the lore unlike the wiki sometimes. The lore presented here is simply wonderful. Recommended as a must-have companion for Rising of the Last War.

The team behind the Across Eberron: Convergence Manifesto adventure path has put together this amazing little supplement, a perfect introduction and summary of the world of Eberron.

I'm a relative newcomer to the setting myself, but quickly fell in love with it, but it's fair to say that like many I had several misconceptions coming into it - it is after all a world that has quite a few intricacies and twists to it that it can feel very difficlt to unravel it all sometimes - that it's not "high magic", it's "wide magic"; that it's not "steampunk", it's ..."dungeonpunk?", etc.

Luckily, this is no longer a problem - the authors of Eberronicon really know the setting in and out, and tasked themselves with the challenge of bringing together almost two decades' worth of canon and boiling it down to the absolute essentials that could fit in a fifty-page booklet - and truth be told, they genuinely succeded.

The book presents the information about the world very gently - it starts off with presenting the top-level distinctive features of the setting, followed by an overview of the races, major regions and locations, factions, and faiths - never delving too deeply, but always giving a good enough idea of what the item in question is like, with useful hyperlinks and references for those who wish to delve deeper.

This is the one supplement I would recommend just about anyone interested in the setting to have a skim-over of - possibly even before getting the big hardcovers like Rising from the Last War - while it doesn't feature any mechanical content, it is simply that good of an introduction into Eberron, whether you are a player, a GM or an adventure writer.

Now to wait for Keith Baker's Exploring Eberron to come out so the new and juicy information from that book can make its way here and make it that much more complete!

I had high expectations for this, but I was very pleasantly very surprised by the high quality and especially approachability of this Pocket Guide. Having read through a bunch of the sources mentioned in this book and listened to the podcast beforehand - what's written here really does draw out the main points.

But lets be specific:

• the content is on the same level. It does not go super deep into one area while just skimming another - the authors have managed to pay a very similar kind of attention to most everything described.
• the sources are all well utilized. It shows that the authors know their stuff inimitely instead of basing this on one or two sources and adding results of internet searches on top of it.
• it is structured very well as opposed to most of the official material. After a skimming or read-through you'll be able to pinpoint the exact page with one glance at the index.

In conclusion - even though I have read a lot and am on the Discord server on a daily basis - this book is very helpful and I'm glad I bought it.

This was my first foray into Eberron and this made it easy and digestable! Looking forward to devouring as much as I can branching out from this.

Extremely useful to introduce a new group to the world! Enough detail to get a feel for each faction, nation, and faith without being overwhelming. Also each section is the perfect lengrh for a quick reference at the table or when writing the next bit of your campaign.

If you're wondering if Eberronicon is useful, yes. Purchase it before you buy any other material if you're new to the setting, and purchase it if you have all of the other material and want a concise way to navigate it.

My experience before using this product: I developed an interest in Eberron about a year ago. Since then I've tried to absorb all of the material I could find. That means all of the source books and adventures from two editions, archived Dragonshard articles, KB's articles on his website, the Manifest Zone podcast, some ok YouTube videos, and even the few 'ok" comics that were put out.

I started DM'ing two 5E Eberron games once I felt like I had a basic grasp of the setting. My players were new to Eberron and needed/wanted a more comprehensive introduction so they could understand the differences between in other settings where the world was less of a character and more scenery. So I spent time preparing to answer possible questions, or coming back during later sessions to explain things, or looking things up we all wanted to know at the time. Not impossible with a folder full of searchable PDF's, but a long enough side bar to detract from the session.

Eberronicon has served me in two ways. If my players have a question about a specific person, place or thing, I can read them a succint entry that it would have taken me much more time to cross reference. And when I'm researching for the game etc., I utilize it's true power. It functions as an Index in that it provides footnotes and links to the source books and articles from which the entries were derived. If I want to find anything, it is the first document I open.

It is well organized, comprehensive, and regularly updated with error corrections. Worth every penny at full price.

Great Reader's Digest for Eberron! Covers all the major points for both players and GM's
