PURCHASER
I'm one of the authors for this issue, so I'm not going to leave a review here for decency's sake, but let me tell you, Codex is lit. It comes out every month (hasn't missed any deadline as of this post) and the content is quality. I'll stick to Crystal because I might as well.

This issue in particular is very fantasy-focused. Other issues vary in content based on prompt, so it makes sense that "Crystal" is as such. HaCK is my work, so I'm not going to say much about it, except the art is A+ and I'm so happy with it. Trepallidic Parasites is creepy and good if you want to have a magic plague in your Dungeon World game. I'm intrigued by Keepers of Antarra, though I've not fully grasped it. The Faceted Order is great for introducing hyper-Lawful NPCs to your campaign. Guardian Stones remind me of Ioun Stones from D&D. Three Dozen Rumors is the odd one out considering genre, but the Miscellany can help you get ideas generated while prepping a game.

All in all, good content,...See more

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
