Who are the Brotherhood? Possibly the largest humanitarian organization in the world? To the grime-encrusted inhabitants of the sprawl they are a shining ray of hope in an otherwise hopeless world. This is their way out of the darkness, their key to personal fulfillment and understanding. They are on every corner. They knock on every door. And they want to save you too. Now someone has been on the inside of the Brotherhood. The objectives and purpose of the Brotherhood have been exposed. Some of the questions are answered. But the truth is even more chilling... SET CONTENTS: Cover sleeve & 2 stapled booklets.

... received this and thought OMG this book is in horrible shape as pages flew out

I received this and thought OMG this book is in horrible shape as pages flew out.. I found out just after the book is comprised of the Net handout and the Adventurebook If fully complete also several 1/4 page leaflets. I have not read read the adventure though it is quite promising.. But the Net handout I was enthralled Immediately so much information for players you can splice in however you wish for the players to slowly untangle the threads.

This is a masterpiece I wish all adventures where written to this scale. The seeds you can plant for further adventures, hooks, or seemingly unconnected pieces of info can be woven together however the GM decides. EPIC. Well worth it.

Basic adventure. Fantastic read!!

Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2005

Format: Paperback

As far as Shadowrun adventures are concerned this one is relatively standard fare. You look for a missing person and unearth something more sinister. Compared to other Shadowrun adventures this one is about average as far as complexity and plot development are concerned. What makes this adventure stand out above and beyond other Shadowrun adventures isn't the physical adventure per se, but rather the implications regarding what the adventurers find out and how that is presented.

Basically the biggest treat in this adventure is a player handout that actually has more pages than the adventure book itself. This handout is essentially a net conversation between two reporters over the course of a few weeks that reveals one of the greatest threats to the Sixth World. This handout alone is worth getting the adventure. Where the gameplay is merely average this one aspect puts that "average" adventure into a whole new level.

I have seen this book sell in auctions as high as $50 or more. My guess is you can probably get it for a good deal less with a little patience (seems interest in these books comes in waves). As far as value is concerned I would say if you really like conspiracy theories that delve into sci-fi and fantasy then paying $40+ might actually be worth it. Whether you're frugal or not in your Shadowrun adventure purchasing this particular adventure is a must have.

Universal Brotherhood's adventure is not the selling point, the research of two journalists is. It's creepy and enthralling and sets you up for plenty of horror with fine bunch of upstanding people!

The is the best RPG Module ever written

Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 1999

Format: Paperback

As someone who has gamed extensively over the years, I can safely say that this is the absolute best module for any game ever written. Bone chilling and frightening, and eerie on every level. I remember running this and seeing goosebumps on all my players when I read choice bits from the "netbook" that was included.
