Well worth the purchase. I picked up the printed cards and they are attractive and of good quality (my first time getting cards printed).

I have to say that the flavor text really is added value even for the spells in the original book. Most of the spells in the BSH book are given only a sentence or two. The flavor text added here both brings the spells to light and also helps understand how it might work or be used. Obviously this is Philip Reed's reading of the spell and not "canon," but they work for me.

To be honest it's a mixed bag. Pros They can be printed up as cards. Very nice. They have all of the powers of the book Cons It says it has new powers but for the most part all they did was give one group the power of another group. Very bad.

I am absolutely in love with BSH, and this item feeds my need for more content. You get all the spells from the base game, plus a bunch of new ones created for the Kickstarter. The cards themselves are nice and glossy. I have never gotten cards from DT before, but the quality seems fine. The tuckbox is also fairly sturdy. I like the art, it fits in well with the aesthetic of the book. Each card has the full rules text, as well as flavor text created for this product. It is well written, and very evocative of the BSH vibe. The single tiny quibble I have is that the pdf is one card per page. Not quite as convenient as a 9-card page, but once again its a very minor thing. You get single images of each card as well.

Lots of uses for these cards. Draw one to see what spell is on a scroll, or that an enemy knows. Deal out 4 or 5 and you've got a grimoire. Personally, I'm going to go through and make a custom 'starter' mix for beginning characters to draw from.

This was well worth the money, and I hope to see more BSH content from Phil.
