Yes. It is not that well written ("pretentious" is the word). Despite the subtitle it is not really a Joseph Campbell game about the Hero's Journey, it's very much a standard fantasy RPG. It does have some ideas I found interesting about designing characters etc. But I wouldn't pay much for a copy, even if I didn't have one already. The companion volume Aria Worlds is better.
