Or: a vault with a specific magic item at the end of it (like a Ring of Wishes), with graded challenges for the power of the item(s) to acquire.
I could have it, or them, spread around my setting. PCs who want said item (a radiant item, a frost wizard's implements, the book of exalted deeds/vile darkness), would research it and go to the Vault.
1) Xendrik vaults I can throw in
2) Vampire's tomb
3) Wizard's books/staff, etc.
4) Excalibur is hidden here (get by these challenges, etc.)
I think that would be useful too, just saying. More useful than a whole Adventure Path I may not get through all the way before the players get new jobs or date/break up, or go to school/go on vacation.
Stringing them together is great, sure, but ToH has dungeon-crawl history to it. A series of dangerous dungeons would be more useful.
