Ordered a PoD copy. For the price, there's not much to complain about, really. The text is only very slightly blurry, but it is readable and won't cause any eye strain unless your copy is different or you have eyesight issues. For some reason, my copy has some coloration issues on the cover, where it's much, much darker than the original; not really a big deal but it's hard to see some of the finer details of the cover art.
The module itself is surprisingly good, considering a lot of 2e published modules are rather "on-rails." It is an excellent way to open up an epic Forgotten Realms campaign. There are some locations mentioned that are not really fleshed out and that's something you'll have to do, or adjust for your campaign. It's kind of a no-frills, straightforward adventure that will give players a foothold in one of the Forgotten Realm's most important regions, from which they can propel themselves into Faerun at large. For the price I got it at, it's a no-brainer, really.
