I have been a GM for 30 years, and most aspects of running a game come easy to me, but I still found the transition to solo play to be a bit of a challenge. The tips and advice in this book clarify some aspects, and offer different perspectives than are found in other solo supplements. This isn't so much a "how to" as to a "how to think about it".

After you have a good oracle, and a favorite game system, I would say this is the next best purchase on a solo gameing journey.

I find the PDQ system to be the best rules light system for narrititve adventure gaming, and this is a top contender for the best Superhero game I have eaver read. Also its discussions on the eras of comics up to and including the animated universes introduced int the mid/late 90's is invaluable.
