read a couple of reviews of dragon magic. some positive, many negative. i have browsed through the book myself and it looks like there are some really flavourful options.

for example - dragonscale husk: in any class that gives you heavy armour, you may trade this feature for dragonscale husk. this scales with class level, but should keep pace with magic armours etc. it allows better dex bonuses than full plate has a decent armour check penalty and you don't have to pay for it, leaving you with more money, yet in many reviews i've seen it unequivocally slammed.

now, if you were multiclassing (say, with a prestige class), i could see why it would lose its power...but otherwise, it seems like a viable (and flavourful) option.

i'm really attracted to the swift wing prc. could be great fun, for the loss of 2 casting levels (i can deal with that).
