The Ssethric peoples once extended their influence from horizon to horizon; they were masters of all they surveyed. From atop the coiled throne of Yahssremore, in what is now the Blessed Lands, they enslaved or exterminated numerous lesser races during millennia of slaughter. This dominance was squandered by arrogance and centuries of decadence, however, and the reptiles found themselves fleeing for their lives, into the swamps and jungles of the south. Now, in the fetid marshes of the Kraldjur Morass live the debased offspring of the once-vast Ssethregoran Empire. Fighting constant wars against the Elorii of Malfelen and the Altherian Republic, these scaly horrors seek to return to their rightful place as the overlords of Onara.

This review is from: Ssethregore: In the Coils of the Serpent Empire (Arcanis: The World of Shattered Empires; PCI1109) (Paperback)
Choquette's book is the latest in the Arcanis series, and I gotta say they just keep getting better. This book deals with the rise and fall of a reptilian Empire, a must for anyone who's a fan of lizardmen, serpentmen and their ilk. The depth of detail in the narrative is fantastic - clearly this guy knows his reptiles, and he knows how to create entire civilisations from them.
The book is wonderfully laid out out, with descriptive historic narrative thats both humourous and awe inspiring in its complexity. You are introduced to the races, species and creatures of Ssethregore. You'll learn of magic and flora, and equipment and technology that clearly demonstrates a genuine knowledge of the sciences, which gives the book even more believeability (and according to the bio he's an actual herpatologist). The book is also dotted throughout with wonderful drawings and images to complete the experience. If you already play the Arcanis games then shame on you if you dont buy this. If you havent experimented with Arcanis, then shame on you again. Buy this, its the perfect product for any D+D game. P.S. This book is head and shoulders above Wizard's "Serpent Kingdoms", so if you only have money for one, get this one. I highly reccomend it.
