review text: The author extends the Kac-Wakimoto [\textit{V. G. Kac} and \textit{M. Wakimoto}, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85, 4956-4960 (1988; Zbl 0652.17010)] character formula for simple highest-weight modules of symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras to cover modules with highest weight chosen from Kumar's `weakly good' subset \(K^{w.g.}\) of \(H^*\) [\textit{S. Kumar}, J. Algebra 108, 472-491 (1987; Zbl 0625.17009)].
