I picked this up on a whim as an early birthday present for myself, after almost backing the original Kickstarter but deciding against it since Numenera ultimately disappointed me.
I have only managed the do a shallow skim of the majority of the book but overall I like what I see. I have to dig deeper into the mechanics but it looks like cyphers fit pretty naturally into the D&D paradigm.
I have been reading the Crooked Hills adventure more carefully and I really, really like it. It's interesting, it is clearly written with easily accessible GM information and I like the way it ramps up the weird as the PCs get drawn deeper in. I am considering running it as a sidequest in my Rine of the Frostmaiden campaign.
