The other review available has nothing to do with this book and shouldn't have been posted. I'm only posting a review because otherwise all that's here is a one-star review based on this book failing to be a completely different book.
This book is a new campaign setting with an interesting theme. It describes a fairly detailed fantasy world. It differs quite a bit from a standard D&D world, even more than Eberron. Thraxis is a large world with a unique cosmology. It includes some elements that may be a little too different, such as multi-colored grass and fungal forests. There's a good bit of material that may see use in my own campaign in my own world (which is what I bought this book for), but I won't be using the setting described. I particularly like The Strangers, a handful of extremely powerful, immortal beings who wander the world. The descriptions of the cosmology are also interesting.
I'm sure more detailed information is available elsewhere on the internet. This book is pretty good, but I can see why it didn't win the setting search, some elements are just too different and feel like difference just for the sake of difference. That being said, I'm glad I bought it, I'll use some elements of this world in my games and take inspiration from other elements.
