Hi Tom,
I know you write a TON of reviews... I suspect I've read a bunch of them.

However it struck me reading your review of Amazonas, and then I checked your other reviews this week, that I feel your reviews could be improved by having some sort of very short summary near the start - generally, what the theme is and what the players are doing in the game. Like, "Settlers of Catan is a game in which players build a network of roads and settlements on an island, from which they get cards which they trade with each other and turn in for new developments". I think I would find it helpful, it would give me an idea of what the game is about, rather than gleaning it gradually as I read the whole review.
Chris
