This adventure is a good follow up to the first and seems to be written a bit more palatable than its predecessor. Its Call to Action is clear: LOCATE.... and ESCAPE; It seems to rely on the DM having knowledge of Belleview in DAGON 01-01, especially as a source to NPCs which can locate the underwater and shoreside entrances into the sea caves. But that can be overcome fairly easy.

After that things are easier to navigate with the Scenes matching up perfect with the map provided in the Appendix 5, and the adventure begins to pick up more speed leading to following the series antogonist into Episode three and into something that I haven't seen since I ran 'Rage of Demons'; in fact, it's premise may seem familiar to some DMs (sorry won't spoil it). You may need to improvise information on the Underdark Lake.

There is an option for Kraken Madness that I did not use, but gives DMs another interesting environmental to add to the adventure, and rather than refer to the DMG for the Madness Tables, it actually provides them in the appendices ..big wins! The Map in Appendix 6 is challenging to determine the scale. Both of the maps are well done though.

Like its predecessor, there are new NPCs, but other than being the captives in this adventure, it is uncertain whether they are involved in further adventures in this series. I can appreciate that the designer did this. I enjoyed prepping this adventure, and look forward to a follow-up effort by Emily Smith. My rating was based on this being the first effort of this designer that I have purchased and not having anything of the designers to compare it to. Good Gaming!
