I have just read through this Threats book from Rite Publishing and these are my initial thoughts.

It is light on mechanics only having one page really dedicated to some expansion to the Channeling power. This is perfectly fine, as I bought this book not for the crunch but for information on one of the most pervasive forces of evil ? in the Lords of Gossamer and Shadow multiverse.

It does a good job in describing how they see themselves and their place in the universe. Details about their culture, how they deal with their outcasts. (Spoiler: It is not what you might think ) Some of their unique sports, as well as their view as a people to other forces and beings. Their respect for history and their ancestors, and how they record history is both a little creepy, and cool at the same time.

It also has a single act that entirely changed them as a species. (I can only say you need to read it, It is pretty epic.)

The reason I don't give it five stars is the whole is laced with the constant repetition, that all of this can of course, be a lie. This is both a good and bad thing. Good in that if a GM doesn't like it. They can discard it in part or whole, and use their own creation for the Dwimmerlaik. It is bad in that if it is all a lie, it has less value as a source book.

It does have some interesting characters in it towards the end and they are statted. A young Lady of Gossamer who is pretty interesting and the Dwimmerlaik's chief assassin. (Yes he is a scary guy)

If you want to get a good feel for the Dwimmerlaik with the caveat that all of it could be lies this is a good book to pick up.
