Nothing weird there, mate. I have read many more books than I've actually played. They're really the best thing to read if you like to GM, better than fantasy because they're the only literature that's targeted to what we GM do. I think they make all of a GM's games better.
And plus how much fun are they? I mean, I'd love to pick up Ptolus soon becausde I have a holiday coming up and can't think of a more relaxing way to spend it than sitting on a beach in Thailand with a cool drink and an RPG book I don't have to worry about finishing anytime soon.
Question is: is anyone planning to actually PLAY IT? Opinions?
