- Decent enough in it's own way, but....
Speaking as a long-time D&D player who finally got into Greyhawk after years of Realms play, I enjoyed this book but also purchased the much larger living Greyhawk Gazetteer. I would reccomend the Living Greyhawk product instead because it's not that much more expensive, and you get lots more information, detail, and history for your money. So, not to knock this product, which is great in it's own way, but I would go for the Living Greyhawk Gazzetter were I you.

- Just what we needed.
Just in case you wanted to bolt adventures together and needed something to hang them on, here's the very thing. If you ever played 'Traveller', Adventures in the world of space trading and stuff, you had a complete map of the universe with data on every planet. This made plugging one adventure into the next, to create a whole campaign, easy. This is just what we needed to glue the edges of all our new adventures.

- This isn't a good buy, no matter who you are
If you are an old Greyhawk fan, this is all common knowledge. If you are getting into Greyhawk, get the Living Greyhawk Gazeteer as this smaller version is way too small to be of any real use. Sure it is only 8 dollars, but you may as well burn the money because this book, if interesting, can ONLY make you want the bigger version, and if you don't find it interesting, well... that speaks for itself.

- Save your money
If you want a good gazeteer for the world of Greyhawk, buy the Living Greyhawk Gazeteer. This is good as a refresher, or if yo just need the map. It's size means the info on everything is limited. Very brief writeups on the various countries and factions don't have enough meat to make your own campaigns off of unless you're looking to make the Greyhawk world your own creation. But if that's the case, why aren't you creating your own world instead of buying an official one? Save the money and buy the Living GreyHawk book. It has more to it and is more worth the money.
