The Human Target

They really shoulda released Reavers online eventually.

I got my copy of The Slaying Stone in the mail today and I'm really liking it. I think it's almost certainly the adventure I want to run first. Although(maybe this is my less familiarity with post-MM3 monsters talking) that first encounter seems pretty deadly when I was glancing over the adventure. Is it going to be too hard for a party of 5 non-optimized PCs most of whom are brand new to 4e?
I always imagined WotC was attempting a stealth Essentials adventure path with the following:
Level 1: The Slaying Stone (HS1)
Level 2-3: Reavers of Harkenwold (Dm Kit)
Level 4: Cairn of the Winter King (Monster Vault)
Level 5: Orcs of Stonefang Pass (HS2)
Level 6-8: Madness at Gardmore Abbey
Keep on the Shadowfell(1-3)
Thunderspire Labyrinth (4-6)
Pyramid of Shadows (7-10)
Prince of Undeath (27-30)
Frustration and Confusion is what'd be missing. ;P*If KotS goes into Thunderspire which connects with Pyramid of Shadows then I feel like something is lost by not running them together for a lot of new players. If I do the story of one then I kinda want to run them all together.
