Book Reviews of Ultima Online: The Official Strategy Guide (Secrets of the Games Series.)
Book Review: Great For Starting an Old-School Server
Summary: 5 Stars
For those who create their own servers using emulators such as RunUO, and hope to capture an old-school feel, this book is very useful at getting all the old stats and such down. Otherwise, its very out of date, and about 7 expansions behind...use only as a reference for a pre UO:R server, or to catch up on old times.

This exhaustive reference includes an incredible amount of information on basic game play, skill advancement, weapons and armor, magic, and all of the various animals and monsters you'll encounter in the game. Prima's book offers a quick primer on character creation and goes into great detail on most other topics. The game's sophisticated combat and magic systems, for example, are very clearly explained.
The book's outstanding town maps are quite handy and can help you track down that elusive reagent shop when you're running low on Spider's Silk.

As your character develops and becomes ready for some serious adventuring, you'll be able to turn to the excellent dungeon maps to see where the next trap or monster lair lies. Of course, the detailed descriptions of each monster (complete with special abilities and hit points) can also make your sword-and- sorcery escapades more fruitful.
