See his Twitter thread for more. There is some glorious art there.

All those who have pooh-poohed this as "light and fluffy" need to read the adventure descriptions. While some do seem to be a bit less on the murder-hobo side, rampaging dragons, horrors in an isolated farmhouse, foes causing volcanic eruptions, and Far Realm infestations hardly seem to be the stuff of nursery rhymes...

Yeah, more like Brothers Grimm. You know, those stories in which half the children involved really do die.

There might be different release dates in different countries. In the U.S., anyway, it is slated for July 19.

No, it was delayed. Someone broke the embargo.

Some really nice stuff in there from that last set of tweets. I really like that they give additional info for areas outside the immediate area of the adventure, advise where you might put them in established D&D worlds if you don't want to use the Radiant Citadel itself, and have actual regional maps for some of the adventures. I was thinking about just staying with the D&DB version, but I might actually get the physical book as well.

Also: Ghouls dragging someone into an abandoned mine. "But it's a light and fluffy adventure book! It has to be since there's a cute creature on the cover!"

 

[darjr]

Ope! I’ll wait till I watch it

 

[Guest 7034872]

I have to agree with NewbieDM: the art in there is really good.

 

[darjr]

Speaking of art

Newbiedm is reading the adventures and talking about them in a Twitter thread.

Careful about spoilers.

Interesting to see a demon that's Neutral Evil! Has that happened in 5e before?

I have not read the book, so I will just assume it’s a demon who went to law school for a semester and then dropped out. He never took a class on contracts, so he can’t go all the way Lawful Evil.

This is my headcanon now. Shut up.
