I was running through the internet and searching Amazon and I came upon this book.  I had totally never heard of it before and was intrigued.  I purchased the book to add to my collection and I must say it has been a fantastic read.  I loved the methodology of the magic system and a lot of the spell lists were very unique. 

The Prosaic magic is going to fit perfectly into my Talislanta Rolemaster campaign that I plan to start in the fall.  Rolemaster never ceases to amaze me.

I've been developing some Prosaic spell lists for something I'm working on.

SUC is a great book
I'm not sure if it is a house rule or RAW but we do prosaics at half cost and everyone can get to 50th, especially allows for high level NPC's like sailors etc..
My hard core power gaming Magus picked up a few of these recently to round out some utility spells... very cool.

I remember there being a few good optional rules like expanded rules for magical languages, existing skills, and using alternates systems like spell books, memorization  and components.

There were a few great, inspiring lists (tricks of the trade), but I thought it was mostly just a slew of Arcane that made archmages ultimately versatile (perhaps too versatile). I also remember thinking it a little strange to have prosaic lists that went up to 50th level. Do we really need a 50th level Grooming Mastery spell? Actually, does anyone have an in-game example of a character using it Grooming Mastery in play? I'd love to hear that story...

Will have to dust it off and take another look at it.
