What The Critics Say
"Glorantha is Greg Stafford’s most famous creation. Countless tabletop RPG players have visited this strange land of gods and chaos... It is glorious. I am not sure there is a tabletop setting so richly detailed and strange... I love lots of tabletop settings, but they all pale in comparison to Glorantha."
