I'd think of King of Sartar as being a bit like an impressionist painting. The whole thing presents a compelling picture, but if you try to zoom in to pick out details you find that much is implied, but little is shown in detail. To get a feel for the hero wars there may be no better source. To get solid material with which to stock a campaign....there area lot of better sources.

Although, once you play past about '25, the other material largely dries up, and you get thrown back on King of Sartar for a guideline of what may--or may not--happen next, somewhere, to someone.
