Six hundred pages? I was looking forward to this game. Now I'm a little scared... ;)
I know there are sensible reasons for breaking it into two books. Still, it would be fun to have a single-volume edition for the shock value. "OK folks, we'll get started on character creation as soon as you commit this (THUMP!) to memory."

Well, reducing that shock value is actually a good thing in terms of getting people on board. :)
All the core rules are gonna be in the first book, but the 150-page chapter on (nearly) every character in the first 10 books, all the monster writeups, the discussion of political factions, and Kenneth Hite's chapter on real-world Occult Chicago will land in the second. If we're lucky enough to get a little vignette story from Jim, that'll be in book 2 as well, I suspect. So there's plenty of incentive to get both I'd say, while still saying, "Hey, don't worry, the core *game* itself is over in this first one."
Tush Hog:
I'm guessing both books will be released simultaneously, correct?
I much preferred 4e D&D's method of releasing it all at once than 3e's staggered approach.

Oh, gods, yes. In fact I'm thinking of making sure the index in the back of each covers both books. :)
Tush Hog:
Excellent!
Now, for an even more important question - have decided on covers for both books? ;D
