The book starts off with by introducing us to Erik, the signature Wraith character,who makes appearances through the rest of the Wraith line. It then adds a list of books, films etc worth taking a look at. The book provides merits, flaws,new traits and ideas for character creation. There is a big section on what is "life" in the Underworld is like covering Heretics,Renegades and Hierarchy wraiths.
The section which follows that takes a look at some of the other Dark Kingdoms wnad was informative to say the least. The chapter after that provides ideas for what it must be like to be a wraith. The next chapter covers the 3 forbidden Aranoi:Intimation,Alchemy and Mnemosynis. The book closes with some essays on roleplaying in general and then a handy appendix of all the arcanoi, their costs, what to roll with it, basically a nice summary.

This book is loaded with handy things for any Wraith group and is well written and illustrated.
