Seconded. It hits just the right balance between informative and entertaining.

This sounds like the sort of product that could keep a person entertained for a very long time.

Indeed. Given it covers an 80 year period, and you generaly play one scenario a year in the game, usualy taking 1-4 sessions per scenario, you could easily fill around 2-5 years of weekly sessions if you played through it at a leisurely pace.

How easy was this to read? It sounds like there are lots of little fiction and historical bits.

Its not bad, although I do find myself having to franticly scan to find important little bits of information. (such as exactly when merlin disappears. That was amazingly tricky to pinpoint) There isn't actualy that much fiction. Most of it is presented as game data, plus quotes from NPC's, and small excerpts of the books that the game is drawn from. There are some very detailed accounts of the way things will go in if the PC's don't interfere, (and this is generally quite tricky to do in the scripted parts of the game. ) such as battles and court interactions.
