Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another Fabulous FASA Job
Review: All in all an extremely well done book. FASA's original playtesters (gee, who could they be?) have returned to the fold to revamp the magic system from ground up to fit in with SR3s image. Beautifully done if I do say so myself (and I do, heh heh).

The Smiling Bandit (Still Striking/Ha Ha Ha)

Summary: Deal with it
Review: Deal with it. I'd rather have a good, usable book then something rushed to market.

In response to: grimlakin@mindspring.com from Dallas Texas , March 22, 1999 A nessesity that is WAY LATE! I am blatantly offended that FASA has not yet published this book. I have a NEED for it in my FASA game. I am certin that every other magically endowed gamer out their needs this also. My query.. why the wait! I say stop all preorders untill it is released.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Now I'll play a mage!
Review: For years I've held off playing magic users when playing Shadowrun. The system seemed to be a pain in the backside. Well chummers, not anymore. This is by far the best thing that has happened to Shadowrun in quite some time.

Summary: Even a troll would love it!
Review: Heh. I remember my troll mage. He kicked so much, well, you know. And to think, that wouldn't have been possible without this book. So wonderful. Magic becomes so much easier with the updated rules. And rules for making your own spells? Exquisite. Although some of the combinations are so powerful that my GM disallowed them. Dam. Ah well. Anyway, the point is that I can assure you that if you're playing a magic user in Shadowrun 3rd Edition, you'll want, nay, you'll NEED, this book. Get it. Now! Enjoy!

Summary: Finally... magic made easy
Review: I remember when I first played Shadowrun how much of a pain using magic was. Fasa has finally come out with a much needed update for the magic system. This is an excellent source book that expands the system for magic and makes it very easy to use. No longer is magic confusing and hard to understand; now it is a breeze to play a magic using character in the Shadowrun world.

Summary: Excellent - If I didn't play SR, I'd want to
Review: I'm lucky enough to have read this book already, and it is everything promised. Very well concieved, with good art, it takes SR3's magic to the level previous books did for SR2 and beyond, while avoiding those books faults. If I saw this book in a store, I would want to buy it and learn to Play SR.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Excellent Sourcebook
Review: Looks like FASA got their act together for this book and really gave what both players and GM's can use. The background information is clear and concise, the game effects are balanced and well-thought-out, and the new rules enhance the depth of the game. Clearly worth the money.
