I can't say enough good things about this book.
The write-up for Luna is superb, brilliant crunch to back up (and reinforce) a far more in-depth write-up of the Incarnae than we have ever seen before.
The extra charms for Lunars are welcome and interesting.
I'd be surprised if you didn't find something on every page of this book that made you glad you had purchased it.

The three books that make up Glories of the Most High are probably the most significant and expansive books printed in Exalted 2nd Edition. Whereas many other books are revisions of earlier material, these three PDFs take concepts that were previously unexplored and shed light on them, almost universally to the betterment of the game.
They're some of the best books in the entire line, and the current crop of freelancers responsible for their creation deserve every bit of the praise being heaped upon them.
Very, very well done.

Having given the bundle a broad outline, some individual highlights for the different Glories books deserve mention. First, this pins Luna down in just the right way - not too much, but enough to understand. If you were wondering just why the world had a seemingly supreme and undefeatable sun god guarding it as well as a moon god of great power, a very well-detailed, evocative and thoughtful explanation lies within. The description of the actual, physical moon (in which Luna holds her own dream-like domain) presents a setting full of potential hooks, as its importance to the fluid integrity of Creation is laid bare. Hints of what Gaia is up to come up. Finally, the Charms, Knacks and thaumaturgy are all top-notch, including some that are bound to become instant favorites for, say, fans of webslingers. In a vital rules sense, you can also find a non-magical Guard Other action. Very much worth getting.

If you purchase no other book from the Glories set, let it be this one. Even if you don't like Lunars. Even if you don't care about Lunars at all. _iLet it be this one./i_ This book is great. If you like Lunars, it's better. But if you don't, there's still page 22.
Defend Other.
Yeah.

The product is amazing! Not only does it reveal one of the most influential aspects of the game setting (if indirect ones in most games), it also provides much needed crunch to help round out characters - and in ways the consumer base have been clamoring for! But above all, just for the setting and fluff, Luna is the best of the set. I couldn't have imagined a Luna this awesome. Good production quality, good writing, good demonstration of responsiveness to the market - this book means business.

The best of the set. Luna is very interesting and now feels part of the setting. Gaia gets coverage we never thought we'd get. The Moon itself seems like a great place ot try and visit for games. New Charms and Knacks are awesome. White Reaper Style is great.
Main gripe is recycled artwork and I noticed a couple layout errors with bolding or font, but those are minor quibbles. Excellent product.

The three Glories pdfs are pretty much the best thing to come out of White Wolf's Exalted line since the core. Hands down.
It has everything you could want (setting fluff, Incarnae stats, Exalted Charms, artifacts, thaumaturgy) and still leaves you wanting even more!

The exalted suppliment Lunars fans have been waiting for! It has lots of kick-ass stuff for Lunars, a full write up on Luna, and a bunch of awesome setting tidbits. White Wolf should really do more things like this.

Okay, I've finished Glories: Luna now and like the UCS it simply amazed me. The fluff is incredible, the crunch some of the best of the line , seriously I can't think of a better way to put it than to say it was amazing. I've already passed on one of the charms to one of my players because it was perfect for her character.

The sheer amount of description that's given to Luna is great, finally giving a good picture of the goddess. The setting detail for the Moon itself is both amazing and unexpected, and the Lunar Charms are just icing on the delicious silvery cake.

This book is a truly amazing extension of the Exalted game. There's more setting secrets and oh-my-god information in here than I could dream of.. This is incredible.

One of the shinnier supplements, the Glories of the Most High: Luna is both a great read in flavor detailing the patron diety of the Lunar Exalts and her relationship to Gaia and Creation, as well as providing new game mechanics and materials for Lunars in Exalted games, as well as a new base mechanic, and is highly recommend for Exalted players.

If you play Lunars, you'll want this book. Luna surprised me. Plenty of fluff and other goodies here. Words just cannot express the awesomeness.
