A left a detailed review for the "Between Adventures Handbook." Most of what I wrote over there is true for this supplement as well. Very basic concepts and random tables. If I'm buying a supplement that's separate from the Player's Handbook or DMG, I would like more creative ideas. This product costs about $5, but I spent $9 to get both products thinking these would add more to my campaign and save on prep but I'm disappointed and it's kind of a bummer. I think with a bit more time and polishing, these resources could do a lot. As they stand, they're basic starting points at best and will cost more time and creativity to really make what's outlined here, worthwhile in game.

I love this! I have it open currently on my Adobe PDF reader and I'm loving the care that went into these materials. These are printer friendly, you can print them for your tabletop games, stick them to the inside of your Dungeon Master screen. While there are some images, the majority of the pages are ink saving because there is no images or special effects that would run your ink dry like other content might. These are also excellent for virtual tabletop as you can just either keep the PDF up on screen or you can paste details into your campaign notes and have them ready in, say, roll 20.

There is love that has gone into each inn, tavern, and shop, too. The descriptions are brief (which is handy so GMs aren't bulked with heavy amounts of information to quickly read through) but they not only offer a suggestion on how to introduce them to your story, but they're also incredibly adaptable and system friendly.

These resources provide a traditional, quick way to be able to think on the fly, ready for the GMs who have players that are constantly keeping them on their toes.

My two criticisms:

For international buyers, please be wary of the currency conversion. While this probably cannot be helped by the author, it is worth noting that some currencies will either increase the price or lower. If you're trying to save money and you're money conscious and your country's currency hikes prices up (like mine does) it's better to wait for sales. Secondly, I wish there was more. I wish these resources never end. I LOVE additional resources, I collect resources. I love having heaps of shops at the ready, or just seeing what people create but alas, all good things must come to an end!

Also to note, the author is wonderful, polite & professional. They respond to your tweets & inboxes on social media and I highly encourage buyers or anyone interested to follow them at https://twitter.com/cawoodpublish. Your purchases support independent artists, content creators, publishers & writers and every follow supports a business.

A very good product for Dungeon Masters who want this level of detail in their campaigns. Full review here.
