Is it possible to have a vampire game set in White Wolf's World of Darkness without the Toreador, Tremere or Brujah? I haven't found a way to yet, nor do I want to. All three are staple clans and make enjoyable player characters as well as NPCs. Libelius Sanguinis II shows a more indepth look at these clans than the basic Vampire Dark Age book. And show us it does, the first section, devoted to the Toreador, proves that death does not impede ones love for another or the world of wonder about them. The Tremere shows us, once again, that they are still not well trusted amongst the other clans. For they fear that the Upserpers will not stop what they started with the diaborie of Saulot. The Brujah are, as they are in modern times and as they were from the beginning of time: Idealists. Dubbed 'Zealots' for their willingness to seek their goal of choice. This book does a fine job on each of these clans as well as adding very playable new Merits and Flaws, new Clan specific high level disciplines, combined disciplines, and even new Thaumaturgy paths to aid the Tremere in their current battle for survival.

I thought that this book had many good aspects to it, mainly that it covered the differences between the clans in the modern nights and in the dark ages. At times it got a bit confusing, but on the whole it was pretty good.

This book had some of the most evil powers i have every seen. I hope that the other two books have the same stuff in them but for different clans. I wish it would have given a little more background for the clans in the vooks though.
