The Legacy of Lombard House is a fascinating read. The author/illustrator clearly went to great lengths to develop this. The opening premise for this investigative adventure is solid and well-laid out. The artwork is surreal and hauntingly beautiful, very fitting for a classic Call of Cthulhu scenario. The amount of details in this creation is enough to supply both new and experienced Keepers with loads of useful information to successfully run their sessions. This is obviously not a one-shot! There are pre-gens with decent stats and characteristics, so Keepers can concern themselves with prepping other areas of this sandbox scenario. The author also included a timeline of events, an alternative ending, along with an abundance of maps and handouts, and even tips for Keepers--making this product well worth the price.
To be fair, I debated whether to deduct a star off for some minor formatting concerns (for example: indentions aren't 100% consistent) and the lack of a clickable Table of Contents, which makes navigating around a larger document easier and is a benefit of owning a PDF. Ultimately, I decided against this, as these do not diminish the quality of content packed inside this module.
