The Tome Show

In this episode Jeremiah McCoy and Zachary Houghton join me to review that Pathfinder Campaign Guide and Gazetteers. If you're interested in the setting of the Pathfinder products these books are for you. While designed for 3e D&D, being largely rule-light these are two products that could easily be used in 4e D&D, or any other game system.
