Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Medicine man, biomancer, magician, monk, sorcerer, or occultist: A Magical Medley has something for everyone! We've compiled a variety of magic systems and magic-related miscellany for use with FUDGE and other role-playing games. Magic systems include: African Spirit Magic, Bioenergetics, Celtic Magic, Chinese Magic, The Gramarye, and Occultism.
Plus: An introduction to designing your own magic system to suit any campaign; tips on integrating FUDGE magics with other role-playing games (including conversion notes for using GURPS(R) Magic with FUDGE); and a miscellany of magic-related adventure seeds and items for use in a variety of campaigns (including 'The Tomb of Shrak Ironfist,' a complete fantasy adventure; and magic items ranging from mailboxes that automatically dispose of junk mail to artifacts of awesome and mysterious powers).

A decent sourcebook for different traditions, even if you don't play Fudge. Of course I may be a bit biased since I wrote 2 of the articles. Chinese magic is OK, I think, though I am now embarassed by Bioenergetics.

Just reading through A Magical Medley gave me more ideas for games than I can easily accomplish. The rules for Celtic magic included ideas for magic I had never contemplated before, and the Gramarye was one of the most flexible "Classic Fantasy" magic systems I'd ever seen. Even magic systems I didn't normally enjoy working with were presented in such a way that I was having ideas for games that would be ideal for that style of magic. The ideas for magical items in the back of the book go far beyond the ordinary "Sword +2", and all are springboards to new and unusual magical items or quests. Finally there was the one adventure in the book. I ran it as a quick adventure for a group of people I was just meeting for the very first time, and I had never run Fudge before, nor had they played it. It was great fun, with most of them telling me how great it was. The only down side is that now they expect me to come up with that quality of adventure the subsequent time I GM for them!

A Magical Medley is a wonderful sourcebook on Magic, written for FUDGE, the freeform, universal Do-It yourself Gaming Engine. What this means to you is that FUDGE is a role playing game in English, which makes all the magical systems and information within this book useful for any system you role play in.
There are many magical systems, rules for converting Gurps Magic spells to Fudge, and a generic noun/verb magic system called the Gramarye that is worth the price of the book by itself, in my opinion.
So if you you are in the mood for magic, look no further!
