This is such a fantastic book! I got hooked listening to Brandes and Sam talk about it on the Edition Wars podcast. I love what it adds to the exploration pillar of play. I love that it actually offers decent guidance for giving non-combat XP in a way that isn't just "whatever feels good". I love the additional rules about resting in the wilderness and gear. I love the guidance it offers on building lore and using indexical storytelling to communicate that lore.
It's a beautiful and beautifully written book. I got the print-on-demand hardcover and it is worth every penny.
