The three books that make up Glories of the Most High are probably the most significant and expansive books printed in Exalted 2nd Edition. Whereas many other books are revisions of earlier material, these three PDFs take concepts that were previously unexplored and shed light on them, almost universally to the betterment of the game.
They're some of the best books in the entire line, and the current crop of freelancers responsible for their creation deserve every bit of the praise being heaped upon them.
Very, very well done. ... [read full review]

Veiled even further in secrecy than the other Incarnae, the Maidens' peculiar origin and their goals receives an enlightening close-up. Like Luna's iteration, it also dangles tantalizing hints of what lies up above Creation amongst and beyond the stars, and the Martial Arts Styles are things of elegant beauty. If Sidereals in your game are wanting for raw power, astrological Charm can help to even the odds, and present a set of powers that, although often difficult to employ because of their gravity in the setting, offer an expansion of capability formerly only possible with the highest tier of Martial Arts. As a matter of bias, I would also like to further note at how wonderful the artifact version of the urumi (whip sword) is. ... [read full review]

The product is amazing! Not only does it reveal one of the most influential aspects of the game setting (if indirect ones in most games), it also provides much needed crunch to help round out characters - and in ways the consumer base have been clamoring for! Good production quality, good writing, good demonstration of responsiveness to the market - this book _means_ business.

This book covers several major mysteries (ambiguities, really) of the Exalted setting, and resolves them in a way that opens new, more exciting questions.
In addition to the stats of the Maidens themselves, which are full of mystic import illuminating their relationship to Fate and causality beyond it, it contains stats for the many creatures that dwell in the heavens - not in Yu-Shan, but in the vast and starry spaces of the sky. It also has a totally sweet Crane Style by Nephilpal, and the miraculous and cataclysmically dangerous Astrological Charms of the primordial war. These new powers are largely well balanced and frankly are some of the strongest mechanical additions to the line in a while. ... [read full review]

Great resource for Sidereal fans. Their patrons, new Sidereal Charms (yay!), three new Martial Arts, a great tying of the goddesses into teh setting. Very useful and full of plot hooks.
Only gripe may be that I could of liked more Sidereal Charms and errata. But awesome otherwise.

The three Glories pdfs are pretty much the best thing to come out of White Wolf's Exalted line since the core. Hands down.
It has everything you could want (setting fluff, Incarnae stats, Exalted Charms, artifacts, thaumaturgy) and still leaves you wanting even more!

The supplement Sidereals have been waiting for! Full writeups on the Maidens! New CMA, SMA, artifacts, and thaumaturgy! And, new Astrology Charms, the double edged swords of Fate!
White Wolf should totally make more books like this.

It's worth it for the Sidereal charm errata alone. And then you read through it and there's an amazing description of the Maidens, an explanation of the teleology that's been an implicit part of the setting since the beginning, awesome kung-fu tricks for Sidereals, and to top it all off, amazingly powerful and equally bizarre astrological charms. Woah.

This book is a truly amazing extension of the Exalted game. Between the new Martial Arts and the final reveal of Greater Astrology (and associated revised XP table), it completely redefines what it means to play a Sidereal. This is incredible.

One of the shinnier supplements, the Glories of the Most High: The Maidens of Destiny is both a great read in flavor detailing the patron diety of the Sidereal Exalts, while maintaining a sense of mystery about them, as well as providing new game mechanics and materials for Sidereals in Exalted games, and is highly recommend for Exalted players.

Greater Sidereal Astrology, 'nuff said. Lots of Fluff, and new stuff that many felt were lacking in Dreams of the First Age. Not overpowered but not underplayed. This is quite frustrating... I can't get over the awesomeness to convey it it in an effective fashion...

An absolutely indispensable supplement worth it for the errata alone (2nd Edition Sidereal charms needed a tweak to bring them up to the standard they should be at). Besides the Maidens and the disturbing secrets of the cosmology they carry, you will also find new Martial Arts Styles (including a Sidereal Style) and the "banned" Greater Astrology Charms dangerous to the Loom itself. Easily the best thing to happen for Sidereal players since their First Edition core.
