Even though I think that this book should be taken as a Scroll-series and not as part of the Books of Sorcery-series, it is simply GREAT!

I love all the Charms included, even though most are bizarre or seem to have no real application or a simple use, they can be adapted to several ideas and uses for specific spirits. It has dozens of charms and every special use has to be brought appart.

Explanation of the genesis of spirits [elementals and gods] is good, their roles, aspects, goals and points of view are cool. Their agendas is a nice move in the Celestial Bureaucracy and the Hierarchy is also a nice explanation of their anger.

Has several gods and archetypes as well as powerful entitites such as a Doomsday-dragon: the Kukla.

Fans of any edition of Exalted will want to grab up Roll of Glorious Divinity 1, Gods and Elementals. Inside, we're given a detailed write-up on various types of gods, from the Masks (whose true purpose has been forgotten) to Bloody Hands, little gods of murder and more, with new charms for these beings, advice on playing them as NPCs as well as Player Characters in an Exalted series. It's not necessarily a must-buy, but it is worth the cost.

A great book for Exalted 2ed book of sorcery 4 the roll of glorious divinity gods & elementals is a cool book on the F'en elementals and ok for the gods.

While I have no issue with the book itself (a great tool for Second Edition Exalted STs), buyers should be aware that some copies of this book were printed with a typo on the cover and title page such that they read "Roll of Glorious Divininty." The copy I purchased from Amazon came with this typo.

I don't particularly mind, and I'm sure they'd exchange it if you wanted, but if you don't want to deal with the hassle of that, you might want to find the book in a store where you can check in advance.
