Notes: Yep, it's another book from swordsman Guy Windsor, but this one should be especially interesting as part of the focus is for writers. I'm looking forward to it.
Mini review: This might be my favorite of Windsor's books, though the title is a little misleading, in my opinion. There are chapters on writers and game designers, but they are a relatively small part of the book. The first half of this book mostly talks about the ethics and philosophy behind swordplay, and this I found quite interesting. The last fourth of the book features some of Windsor's ideas behind training regimens, and this I found quite boring, probably because much of it was material I had read from some of his other writings. Still, like I said, this is probably my favorite of his books, at least of those I've read so far.
Sounds like I should pick it up.
