Has anyone seen this module?

About 19 years ago, shortly after I started playing AD&D I remember a kid in my class (5th grade) bringing in a module for a few of us to play during recess.

I vaguely remember the cover of the module, I think it had a picture of a fire giant wielding what looked to be a prismatic (or at least rainbow-colored) sword. I don't remember any of the adventure itself.

Does anyone here have any idea of the name of this module?

Could it be C2: Ghost Tower of Inverness? It has a picture of a fire giant on the back cover:

Here is a scan of the front cover:

If you flip over module C2, "The Ghost Tower of Inverness", the back cover looks like that. The fire giant's sword isn't really a rainbow, but there's a big lighting contrast from top to bottom (underlit by red/yellow fire) that make it look that way.

EDIT: Dammit, beat to the punch!
 


Probably one of my favorite cover arts for "old" 1e modules (the style exemplified by C2, as opposed to, say, Pharaoh.

Also, my least favorite of all of TSR's "old" 1e modules :-P

Didn't WotC update this to 3e at some point? Why do I keep thinking they did?

They didn't, but I did years ago. Back then ENWorld had a conversion library. You might have seen it there.
