[QUOTE="DemonKing, post: 3999567, member: 18398"] You mean like how a half-breed kid can kill the Dragon, an incredibly powerful creature that has lived for eons? Get Real. The first couple of Denning's books were ok but they really went downhill fast. Most of the other novels were equally awful...especially the Hawke(?) ones with the Munchkin kid and his sabre-toothed tiger. With regards to Original vs Revised versions of the world, I prefer the original. There was a much greater sense of mystery and discovery to that version. By the time revised came around a lot of the mystery had been revealled in modules/accessories/novels (and it turned out to be underwhelming...the world was once ruled by Halflings...huh?) and a lot of plain silly stuff was added (Lost Sea, Windriders, Psionic-grafts). Best accessories for mine: * Vieled Alliance (Greatdetail on cities) * Both Monstrous Compendiums * Psioinc Artifacts of Athas (Just ignore the graft crap) * Psioniscists of Athas (lots of great new powers) * City by the Silt Sea (interesting campaign setting + adventure) * Gladiator's Handbook (essential accessory for Athasian combat) [/QUOTE]
