So far there have been three major products written focusing on the
Universal Brotherhood, The Universal Brotherhood module, Burning Bright, a
novel by Tom Dowd, and Bug City (which I haven't read). While I understand
that it is possible to take a good idea too far, the two items I've read
both seem to point out that the government has a very different idea (from
megacorps) regarding the dangers that magical threats really pose. In
addition, it seems likely that after what has happened, that the UB is going
to have to change strategy. Remember that there were (as of 2051) 100
chapters of the UB outside of North America. While the megacorps that know
about the UB are going to after them, not everyone will. Maybe a section of
the UB worldwide is more appropriate within the worldbook project.
