Well I got my coupon and I'm happy Here's what I posted on RPGNow:

While I was disappointed with the unoriginal racial power, I'm overall happy with this book. The art is cool, the design is nice, and there's enough mix of crunch and fluff to fill up a pdf of this price. If you think the cover looks even remotely cool or intriguing, you should be happy with this inexpensive addition to your 4E racial options.

Man, my brain is a cacophany of Quest for Glory flashbacks and memories of my longest running 2E character who was a wemic.

I liked this product. You can see the review I wrote for more thoughts:

This product continues 4e's trend of presenting playable character races that are fantastic yet different from the Tolkien-esque staples. The Linotaur is cool, and that alone is a draw. The mechanical design is on-par with the core races, giving you something that will stand out but should not unbalance things. I like the fact that the Linotaur occupies non-standard space on the grid; along with its high mobility it opens up a lot of interesting tactical options. The racial abilities presented are expected for this type of creature, enhancing the race's natural abilities and weapons. It also includes information on Linotaurs as monsters, making this product twice as useful.

The only thing I would have liked to see included is a bit more information on the ancestral spirit cult of the Linotaurs. We get a glimpse of it via a sample adventurer's description and a Heroic feat, but that's it. Which is a shame because it provides a very interesting story hook, alongside the Linotaurs' tradition of gathering tales of life experiences to recount at pride meetings. Perhaps that can be included in a future expanded version, one that also includes one or two paragon paths and an epic destiny.

This is a solid product, at a good price, presenting an interesting new race for 4e gameplay. I'm very pleased with it.
