This is not a thread in which to post reviews. Rather, it is a collection of links to them.
The afforementioned
Underkoffler's Overview
Polaris is mentioned very favorably in the
Sons of Kyros
after GenCon show (#4) and briefly their pre GenCon show (#2).

Polaris gets a mini pre-play review in Paul Tevis's
Have Games Will Travel #7
. He calls it "his pick for GenCon" and promises a future review. Thanks, Paul!

Thanks, John! Wow.
Are you going to post it on RPGnet? What with the ratings and all?

I didn't feel it (my review) was RPG.Net worthy, especially since I haven't had the chance to actually play it. But a lot of Everway-L people are RPGNet regulars so I included it for a convenient reference.
And I'd have to rewrite it to remove the Everway references, I think.

As there are a few Scandinavians around I'll link to
my own review
(Danish). I'll summize by saying "Very positive - will try it soon."

It's short and sweet and to the point. My sister Adiel wrote a
review of Polaris
on her blog, based on the game that we played when my family visited over the July 4th weekend.
