Summary: The 3rd Edition Magic Book
Comment: Magic in the Shadows is essentially a consolidation and update of the Grimoire and Awakenings: New Magic in 2057. Most of it seems to be the Grimoire but they did include (in abbreviated fashion) material from Awakenings.
It updates all the advanced magic stuff like initiation and meta-magic to 3rd edition rules and does a pretty good job of it. My only gripe is that section on Voodoo is cut down and a lot of the "flavor" of Voodoo from Awakenings is gone.
I'm not totally up on the 3rd edition magic system but it does appear to have been cleaned up quite a bit and simplified. I'm sure this removes some of the complexity but I think overall it's for the best.
This book was written by Stephen Kenson who seems to be the magic guru of the Shadowrun universe. It's not an entertaining read just for fun but it's a better "textbook" than the previous magic books were. There's more examples, clearer definitions, and better organization. It provides a little new information on ghosts as well.
If you have magicians in your games your going to need this book sooner rather than later. It's pretty easy to find and you might have some luck finding cheaper used copies of it.
