Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The book covers a little of the history of the iberian peninsula, rewritten to fit in with the 'mythic' flavour of Ars Magica. There is also a section giving examples covenants, one of which are some urban magi residing in medieval Barcelona.
Themes treated in the book include conflict between the pro-christian and pro-islamic mages, with collusions within islamic lands between the hermetic magi and sufi mystics.
A problem with this guide, i felt, was too much of a heavy influence on demons. It also could of benefitted from at least a token attempt at rules for islamic magicians.
Iberia is so fantastic a setting for an Ars Magica campaign, if you're running one it's still worth it, though i would recommend doing your own research. The Kabbalah book in the series would also be useful. Not as good as it could be.
