This is an excellent adventure with lots of inspired action for those who like a story-heavy roleplaying game. Those who prefer dungeon-crawling might wish to avoid it as there are no such elements in this adventure. It is still a very exciting adventure and my group had a lot of fun with it. I have two critiques, one minor, and one major. The minor critique is that there is a lot for players to digest as this is the beginning of a long series. It doesn't really interfere with the game much as long as you present the material clearly to the players. The major critique is that the editing of this adventure was not very good. Typos, grammatical errors, and punctuation errors are rife throughout, and the organization of information is not optimal. I spent a lot of time during the game trying to find necessary information that wasn't located in a logical place. The statistics for NPCs are also located twice in the text, meaning the page count is artificially inflated and printer ink is wasted. Very little of this has to do with the actual quality of the adventure itself, but presentation lacked a bit to be desired. Were it not for this, I would probably give this 5 out of 5. As it is, I give it a weak 4, but would still recommend it to others.
