 | | Akashic Brothers is the one that stands out in my mind as the most unimpressive of the four earliest (only before...ech...Verbena). |
 | | The history is vivid, and well done, giving the Brotherhood much-deserved depth, in compairson to the 2nd edition book, where they were largely portrayed as Mono-Asians with no national ties, and little history beyond being from Meru (the original, mountain village where all humanity originated, according to the Akashics), and founding the Shaolin temple. |
 | | There are several intresting sidebars here, one on Religion and the Akashic Brotherhood (Which I honestly do hope we see in other upcoming traditionbooks, Religion and the Dreamspeakers, Religion and the Euthanatos...etc...etc...) that covers the mileu from Jains, to Confucians, to even Christians. |
