Don't fear the reapers

The Underworld is a black mirror to Creation, and the fourth 'magical' setting book for Exalted 2E finally gives it its due. Even by the game line's high standards, this sourcebook is packed with information, having to cover what is essentially a whole other world.
You get a sizable chapter on the history of the Underworld, followed by five tackling the main areas of the same (and following the compass point arrangement of the overworld- north, south, etc.) The Labyrinth, twisting, horror-filled maze that it is, gets a chapter to itself. Finally, you get stats for Underworld-specific critters (the plasmics are particularly nasty) and major characters.
As ever, how good you find this book will depend on how much you plan to use the information within. But with the Underworld exerting such an influence on Creation through the shadowlands, this is more useful than most. And if you have the Abyssal manual (and if not, why not?) then you really MUST buy it, if only for somewhere to call home.
