[QUOTE="T. Foster, post: 3702811, member: 16574"] Gave this a quick flip-through at Border's today. On the one hand it looks like the designers achieved pretty much exactly what they set out to do -- a big epic adventure set mostly in and around a version of Greyhawk Castle that incorporates tons of Greyhawk-lore while remaining true to "official Greyhawk canon." Alas, that's not what I would've wanted (essentially as complete and faithful a recreation as possible of the original 70s-era Castle and Dungeons, relying on printed legends, public knowledge (and perhaps some private knowledge from Rob Kuntz -- EGG himself, sadly, is probably hording his private knowledge since he's planning to publish his own remake/remodel version of the Castle)), and therefore I wasn't even tempted to actually buy the book. No hard feelings, I'm not going to denounce this book as teh crap!!1! or anything, and in fact it's pretty much exactly what I expected it to be -- I was just hoping to be pleasantly surprised...
