I have passed over this one for as long as it has been out. The poker card thing put me off. I am very sorry I did and glad I finally decided to take book I for a test spin. FECK YA! This has got to be one of my all time favorite fookin' VN's. My mind is blown I could not say enough about how good this one is! Slainte to Droid, cheers and hip, hip, hooray! I'm a sucker for fantasy, Arthurian Legend, Celtic Lore and anything resembling D&D games. I am also a sucker for a good story and LOM nails it. I look forward to book II now. Time to poor a highball of Glenlivet Founders Reserve and start the show...
