A great book better in kindle or paperback

This is choc full of advice and helpful info. There is a PDF to accompany this however there is alot of tables and having them be narrated can be grating. Just a feature of it being an audiobook. I have been running games for 4 years and still found loads of good stuff in here.

luckily not all RPGs are OSR or DnD

My God, the game mastering really does not require that much preparation! There are good ideas for experienced GMs, but the book might be discouraging for beginners.
