8 / 10ShannonAOn the one hand, not a very interesting book to read. On the other hand, a superb reference for the Marches, better than anything else ever printed (before or after). I disagree with the statement that the errata is mandatory: it's just some page references that got left out of the original.
7 / 10JiawenProbably the best of the GURPS Traveller setting books. The Spinward Marches are vast, and would require a multi-volume encyclopedia to treat with the detail they deserve. Also, some of the planets don't make sense -- green worlds lying on major trade routes with only a few thousand people, that kind of thing. But there's a lot of detail here, and plot hooks suggest themselves all over the place.
6 / 10g026rAn invaluable resource for a Spinward Marches campaign. However, the errata is mandatory in order to use the book. More detail on individual planets would have been appreciated as well.

3 + 5ShannonAGURPS Traveller: Behind the Claw. A superb, but dry, reference for the Spinward Marches that should be in the library of every single Mongoose Traveller GM running a game in that sector of space.
