Some very obvious parallels to star wars but an enjoyable read. I liked how the concept of one's true name was dealt with and how it required true self discovery.
I love how the zomie apocalypse is used as a vehicle for bigger issues and what makes us human. I also like the tv series but what i think is great with the show is that they've kept true to the spirit of the graphic novel while going off script and developing it even further.
I love Gaiman, I love mythology, especially that of the Norse. This was an excellent telling of some of my favourite stories, I specifically enjoyed Loki's punishment.

I loved the Dresden files and was hesitant to give this a try at first. after I got a couple of chapters in I was hooked though. It's an interesting concept to have the majority of a civilization weild powers and the protaganist be the only one without.

I love the verse, I like the idea behind the cortex system, in practice though it was too confusing for myself and my players. While the flavor language that fills every page helped get you into the right headspace it became increasingly frustrating to rifle through the book and try and make sense of the rule system amidst the cloud of colorful verbiage. I understand the new Firefly RPG uses a Cortex 2.0 that may well have streamlined the system but my players are just done with cortex all together so I'll be running my next firefly campaign with a modified version of d20 modern, possibly with some lifts from this iteration (like the money system, planetary distances, etc. just converting all attributes and skills otherwise)
