1: Looks like you've got a river going through a mountain chain.
2: This looks odd to me. Kinda like a Scottish Loch, but it looks like you've got either a continental separation of salt water or a large freshwater lake draining into both the nothern and southern oceans. I'd pick one to have it drain into if its a lake, and if it's a continental separation, you should have some hills perhaps mountains around it.
3: Mountain chains with appreciable water on both sides of some mountain chains. This happens but one side will tend to be significantly drier than the other.
4: This large area may be fairly dry as it's the continent center. This may not be the case, however, because you may have adequate air flow off the oceans.
5: Some rivers seem to be intersecting at 180 degree angles. Although this could be because of the map scale, most rivers don't meet head on.
Other than these nitpicks it's a very nice looking map.

Thanks for the crits mucho appreciated.
1. Correct. It is a huge gorge...can that happen? I was thinking something along the lines of the Royal Gorge in Colorado/New Mexico. Good call...If it does not work I will remove it.
2. It is a continental sepration and the final will have the whole area as hills and some sparse mountains. It is OLD.
3. Good call - I will need to remove some of those rivers.
4. The central lands "The Middle Kingdoms" does have some problems with dryness and is largely plains like Nebraska, Oklahoma, & Texas.
5. Thanks for the tip on the rivers.
Randy.
PS - love your books.
