Over on Facebook, I said: “This book is really gorgeous, I think it's my best layout job yet, supported by an Art Director's rolodex full of talented artists, all working in full colour.” And it’s even lovelier in print than it looks on the screen. 1 Quote Community Ambassador - Jonstown Compendium, Chaosium, Inc.

Interior map illustrations are pretty readable. The zoomed-in ones of sections of the city are very readable, a good thought. Colored backgrounds behind the text on all the pages make the text marginally less readable - though cataracts developing in my eyes don't help. (It could be worse, textured colored backgrounds would be really bad:: This effect of textured backgrounds is verified by an interesting real-life accidental experiment about 25 years ago.) I like the organization of the descriptions of parts of the city, 'From the north east", "From the Oslir river'. I like most of the illustrations of people. The Furthest map and Kingdom of Tarsh map on pages 6-7 and 77 needs a magnifying glass (which i have) or a really close look (my nose gets really close to the paper) , so I am ordering a poster, and it was a good thought to sell those through Redbubble. I like the Gazetteer Index! I like the hierarchy of headline fonts. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
