I have to admit, even though it's obviously more "review" than "preview", this article got the ol' rusty cog a-turnin'.

Yeah.. it was an interesting bit of fluff, especially how it tied in with some of the new cosmology.

Good Lord in Heaven, inspiring fluff in 4th edition!

Ironically that article inspired me to rethink and further refine a different kind of Elf. I suppose I'm going to have to buy this book when it comes out.

Ummmm... what?

A review is an evaluation of the product, while a preview is a glimpse of the content of the product. As this is an excerpt straight from the book, and not a person's evaluation of the book, it is most definitely a preview and not a review.

And so far, its fine.

I think the good doctor meant "review" in the sense that we've seen part of this article before - Previews for November and Beyond
