I was seriously disappointed by pss. The 'amazing setting' was just some guy riffing on planescape and the writing and plot just struck me as amateurish and bad. I stopped about 2/3rds in. I mean, did he just really want to write in the planescape setting but change the names and make everything brown so that he could pretend to be a real author or what?

My most vivid memory of the book is when we first go to the cactus district and the author spends a page or two describing in extreme detail how the cactus' guard crossbows work, not because they are being used and it's somehow relevent to what's happening at the time, but because he's obviously just thought about it as part of his world building and he felt he needed to put it somewhere because it was cool.
