I'll try to be brief: Too many errors in the stat blocks. Not challenging enough for PCs created by-the-book. Overly contrived elements to demonstrate specific rules. (The key word in that sentence being "overly".) Putting some information in the wrong place. At least one sentence that made me lose any respect for the author. Uninspiring. At least one description of a feature that guaranteed the group would never take the adventure seriously. (I'm partly to blame for not realizing it myself.)
Individually, they aren't major problems, but altogether...
I won't go into details because this thread isn't the place, I don't want to post spoilers, & I've ranted about it elsewhere (rec.games.frp.dnd for one).
Recently I had the thought of converting it to B/X D&D and, for some reason, it seemed like I might like it if I did so. Maybe because I'd be throwing out so much and only keeping the things I did like.
