What do Gaming Luminaries say about King of Sartar?
"Wise¸ enigmatic¸ and impossibly many-sided¸ King of Sartar is as beguiling as any non-imaginary mythology¸ but with more dragonewts. Gaming culture's equivalent of Invisible Cities or Dictionary of the Khazars." - Robin D. Laws
"If you are unfamiliar with Glorantha¸ this is your chance to learn of an amazing mythic realm. If you are familiar with Glorantha¸ what are you waiting for?" - Sandy Petersen
"Some of us have been waiting so many years for this new revision of this book that we lost count. If you don't know how precious a thing it is that you are holding in your hands right now… OPEN IT UP AND START READING! Doesn't matter where¸ doesn't matter what. The world tells the tale." - Mark Rein-Hagen
