A lot harder to fit into Shadowrun Fourth Edition, 'Shadows of the Underworld' is set against the presidential elections made famous for the inclusion of everyone's favorite dragon, Dunkelzahn.

The concept is really quite solid - take a large attention-grabbing event, and then explore it from the Shadowrunners perspective. Wlst the rest of North America looks on, ther is work aplenty for SIN-less of all walks of life.

Shadowlands postings open the book and succinctly sum up the major issues and candidates (I'd highly recommend photocopying these two pages as player handouts), and the rest of the layout should be comforting and familiar to veteran Shadowrun players.

The modules are all of decent quality and it is clear that FASA wanted different moods, themes and goals for each one, but with the over-arching plot of the political race in the background. You could use these as 'side-runs' to remind the players of the larger events, or simply play them one after the other - they can work equally well with either application.

The only downside is that they are very firmly tethered to what is now part of Shadowrun history - if you wanted to set them in the current timeline, you'll need to do some Legwork to put some new faces into the Presidential race. The concepts are good, and the sotrylines are solid, so it will be worth the trouble.
