I've bought it. It contains:
-- draconic cults (the EWF equivalent of standard cults), which are based on
particular interpretations of the draconic faith rather than on particular
gods like the theist cults,
-- draconic legendary abilities,
-- Dragon magic (the EWF equivalent of Divine magic),
-- God Learner Sorcery spells,
-- Zistorite magic items,
-- heroquesting rules

It is extremely interesting to read, and really shows how Second Age
Glorantha is very, very different from Third Age Glorantha. As for gaming
value, I cannot say since I haven't played in Second Age Glorantha yet, and
all the stuff in the book is very tied to the setting.

All in all, if you are a Glorathan fan, it's a must-buy (if only for the
background!).

Hope this helps,

Cheers
