[QUOTE="Matchstick, post: 2786966, member: 217"] I actually took time out of my work day, came up to the boards, and searched for the thread I knew would be here so I could comment on this issue. Dungeon is generally very good IMO, but this issue, or what I've read so far, has been simply well beyond very good and somewhere into the legendary category. "Within the Circle" is excellent, with good provisions for character failure (great to have in a low level adventure), a mysterious group that could get carried forward, and I love the surface adventure and the adventuring group having a different purpose than that surface adventure. I like this adventure better than any low level one I've seen in Dragon for a number of years. "The Palace of Plenty" I would characterize as genius. Really, I know that's strong, but that is the word that leaps to mind. What an amazing adventure, and the writing is so evocative. I love that the adventure could easily be adjusted to fit anywhere by simply altering the terminology. I can only offer an awed "wow" at this one. I haven't even gotten to "The Spire of Long Shadows", and this is still by far the best issue of Dungeon I can remember for quite a while. [/QUOTE]
