Thank you both, very much appreciated.

This is a tape-bound edition being used for proofreading and final edits. Some contents may change, so this is in no way to be considered final.

Looks very good to me. I think the font looks fine for headings etc. on interior text - my problem was always the rounded "3d" colour version on the previous cover mock up we saw as a step too retro, but cruel hobo on it's own isn't a problem and the rest of the layout is classic Chaosium: sparse, clean,
readable (heretical notion in a book I know...). And that looks like a decent index as well - very promising I'd say.
Also, my complements to the artists Chaosium has used for the interior illustrations - from the ones we can see there is a lot of excellent work in that department as well.

I have chosen not to display the temporary cover, as it is a placeholder and I don't want to circulate any potential disinformation or add to the hysteria that accompanied the previous cover image.

Very wise
- albeit would I be correct in inferring from this that that previous cover mock up is definitely out and that, whilst the
painting may be used, the actually cover may well be quite different?
Oh, and I like the look of the character sheet - I tend to do custom sheets for specific settings, but a good basic sheet is always a useful fall back.
Really promising and exciting Jason, I can't wait to see this book in my FLGS (albeit I'm also hoping there'll be a web-site only pre-order as they did with
Malleus Monstrorum...
)
