  • "Regardless of your Keeper/GM style, or whether you’re a newcomer or a veteran in the role, there’s some very useful pearls of wisdom in here – and it’s well worth adding to your RPG bookshelf (or that of any Keeper/GM friends you might have) as a result."

    — Game On Aus, Keeper Tips reviewed.

  • "Excellent advice for new hobbyists and veterans… though the advice centers around Call of Cthulhu RPG, many passages within can easily apply to any roleplaying game."
