One earlier review made credible sounding arguments that the game was a mess for these reasons. You obviously like it, but could you tell us how its basic mechanics (char gen; task resolution; combat) compare with similar games, such as Ars Magica?
Keep an eye out over at Ogrecave dot com. I've had a review in the pipe for a while now and one of the things I do is provide a walk through of the character creation process. There's also an interview with the game's author and some othe fun stuff.

Feel free to e-mail your demands to see the review ASAP to the fine folks at Ogrecave if you wish.
