Rage Across the World: Volume 1: Caerns: Place of Power and Rage Across Russia

a great book...dark with the overwhelming feeling of doom., i can't believe no one ever reviewed this book i owned it years ago, in the 90's and from the moment i picked it up i could not put it down. RAR was hands down the best source book i ever read for werewolf (apocalypse) the entire book made you feel as if amragedon was months away and that it was unavoidable. it really made a lot of comparisons to how americans veiwed soviet russia during the cold war, with how the garou outside of russia veiwed those stuck (trapped)behind the iron shadow (nod to the iron curtain) it was by far the darkest themed book werewolf had, and if you ever read the Silver Crown, this book gave an all new depth to the character Arkady, and what he had to do to escape Baba Yaga's reach. i think the new forsakken series (or new WOD in general) could probally have something similar to this story arch, given the actions Vladimir Putin has taken to consolidate the kremlin's power (as of september 2006) or better yet they could give a peak into the world of Kim Jong-il and the DPRK (north korea) so all the above stills applies from my other review only with this package you get an extra book, caerns places of power, in of itself a great resource....

This is a great buy especialy for a ST just getting into W:TA. For it contains two sorce books that are out of print. This book help flesh out chronicals that span more then just one area of the world.
