How come no reviews of ENWorld Players Journal?

Just wondering.

Well, you won't see a staff review, of course.

I haven't seen it at my FLGS yet.

Just wondering.

There is no way to review periodicals in the ENWorld review framework. And of course the staff reviewers are not allowed to review ENWorld material.

Is it possible and/or likely it will be reviewed somewhere else?

The short review? Buy it.

The material, from art and layout, to supplementary D&D mechanics and adventures, is as professional as any gaming magazine I've seen. The format of the book reminds me of the TSR Dragon Magazines: black and white paper sorta-stiff pages. It's not the flimsy glossy stuff.

At $5 per issue, once per quarter, it's certainly affordable. You can buy this magazine without cutting back on your other d20 purchases.

My only request is that EnWorld somehow reformats the magazine in PDF form (especially creatures, which I'd like to see in a "no more than one creature per page" format) so that you can print out particular pages for your own use.

I think Gaming Frontiers gets reviewed. It's quarterly, sort of. EN Journal could be reviewed the same way...
