Yes, it is fairly rail-roaded, but it is epic as heck, and brings the PCs all across the Tablelands from Tyr to Urik to the Sea of Silt and then back again and across the Ringing Mountains, across the Forest Ridge, and finally to the Dragon's Crown. And in addition to the main plot, there are lots of side quests to spice all that travelling up.Freedom happened in parallel with the The Verdant Passage, and the adventure's finale happens at the same time as the book's. Road to Urik is sort of a prequel to The Crimson Legion – Urik's been threatening Tyr now that they don't have a Sorcerer-king anymore, and the PCs (likely through connections they made in Freedom) help in recruiting troops and get to lead them in early skirmishes before the proper fighting begins. Arcane Shadows starts out in Urik, and it's suggested that the PCs are there as a consequence of the war between Tyr and Urik, but that's a very tenuous link and the adventure doesn't otherwise have any ties to the novels other than sharing the same cover as the back of the Amber Enchantress. Asticlian Gambit and Dragon's Crown doesn't have anything at all to do with The Obsidian Oracle or The Cerulean Storm other than sharing back covers.</blockquote>
