Sorcerer's Companion

While this is overall a solid book, it fails somewhat at the goal of updating Sorcerer to 20th Anniversary Edition. It handwaves many of the difficulties, such as the different abilities that are standard across editions, with a brief summary and several options, whereas what it could really use would be a table of updated dicepools, or the like (which would also be a handy reference for players).

That said, as an expansion for Sorcerer Revised, the Companion is an excellent book, adding/updating a few paths and presenting a wide range of rituals. I have slightly mixed feelings regarding the new Sorcerous Societies, particularly the discussion with Changeling seems to lean on Changeling: the Dreaming 2nd Edition rather than the updated C20 banality rules, as an example.

However, if looking for flavor for sorcerers and especially if playing or STing for them in Revised, the Companion is an excellent book that adds a lot of options and flavor to the experience.

Sorcerer's Companion

The Sorcerer's Companion does a wonderful job, updating Sorcerer's to M20. The book does a wonderful job describing how sorcerer's could be intergrated into other WOD lines such as Vampire, Werewolf, Wraith and Changeling. The four paths presented in the book are well done. Chronomancy was our favorite. With all the paths, none seemed overpowered, or to complex.

Our favorite part of the book was the section called "A Sorcerer's Grimoire", which presented us with tons of rituals for each of the paths. This was an area that the original Sorcerer book was lacking.

The DSC Tabletop Gaming Club feels that the Sorcerer's Companion is a must have for all Sorcerer players. It fills in a gap that was missing for the Sorcerer character type.
