[QUOTE="Pramas, post: 364728, member: 995"] Book of the Righteous is a bargain. No, really. To show you what I mean, let's have some fun with math. Green Ronin frequently produces 64 page books for $14.95. No one says boo about that price, so presumably people think it's fair. I can tell you that a book that size runs about 40,000 words. I can also tell you that Book of the Righteous clocks in at 270,000 words. That means that Book of the Righteous is 6.75 times the size of one of our 64 page books. Now bear in mind that we pay by the word and we use the same ratio of art (which also has an expense) in all our books. On top of that, it's a hardcover, which is more expensive to produce. If the price to word ratio on Book of the Righteous was the same as, say, Armies of the Abyss, do you know how much BoR would cost? $100.91. Book of the Righteous is packed with great content and beautiful art, and it's wrapped up in a sturdy hardback. It is well worth your $40. FYI, Mutants & Masterminds is 192 pages, full color, and $32.95. [/QUOTE]
