While I was skimming it to get the monster mini count, I noticed several things.

1) A few skill challenges. (Locating the Great Warren, activating two portals, one of which is to the Feywild, etc).

2) There are a lot of encounters here. There are a few I'd personally swap out for others.

3)

Spoiler:

Skalmad, the big bad troll, is fought three times. He has a special magical item in his eye; when he dies, it returns his body to a specific site, and he gets brought back from the dead, bigger and badder. The PCs are expected to kill him, run back to Moonstair, fight (and possibly kill him), then go into the feywild and fight him at the end a third time when he is reincarnated as the King of All Trolls.

4) Barely any traps. Although one of the additional encounters that's in the DM booklet has a cool reflavoring:

Spoiler:

Some shambling mounds and stormrage shambling mounds are hunkered beneath some lightning-enhanced trees. The trees are laced with veins of mythical metal, and are treated as a Fire Jet trap that does lightning damage. Also the trees are mildly magnetic, treated as daggerthorn briar (DMG 89, 300xp) that only effect heavy-armor wearing characters.

I would like to see more of this reskinning to give a fantastic appearance more often.
