A very interesting book, but not excellent. October 5, 2000 5 out of 11 found this review helpful
I bought this book thinking that it would be great, I have the book "Kindred of the East" and I love it, my friends and I really love this game and when I saw the title of this book I thoght "Great, Mage in the East, not only the Akashic Brotherhood exists in this game, so I bought it. I have to say that it is really interesting, but some parts are really boring and it could be a bit more complete.
Finally! Something worthwhile on the East February 22, 2001 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I was expecting to enjoy Dragons of the East as soon as I picked it up; in my opinion, the only thing the Mage line had done with the far east, to that point, was lousy (The Akashic Brotherhood Tradition book). Anyhow! I was thrilled with this book! I wanted in-depth material on cultures, magickal styles, and factions, and it DELIVERS. The far east now consists of more than a couple of Shaolin temples. THANK YOU!
Disappointed October 16, 2001 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
Personally, I think this was a big mistake on WW's part. While I like the Akashic Brotherhood and many other things, to make such a big difference between (for example) the Western Technocracy and the Asian Zaibatsu is unnecessary. A great story could have been told with the Asian Technocracy trying to gain a foothold in the established land of tradition that is China and Japan, but instead that was all thrown away in light of "Everything in Asia is cooler." For the other games, it made sense, but for this one, it was baffling.
Brief overveiw September 17, 2005 It is an interesting veiw on Mage the Acension. It lacks a few detials on system but is other invaulble in an eastern themed game. It is also even if you are not as interested in the eastern subsets. They have some interesting rotes and wonders.They also have a few interesing sub-traditions.
