17th level!?! Two of Baba Yaga's daughters?!? Sweet!
I'd ask when we'll learn the author's identity, who am I kidding? I'd buy it even if you said a thousand carbuncles were scratching it out randomly in the dirt ...
I'll be curious to see how much adventure you can fit for 17th+ level characters in a 32 page module.
I think a fair amount. We fit a lot of adventure into this amount of space every month back when we were doing Dungeon, after all. We've got plenty of practice making high level games fit!

Tangential Question:
Could anyone tell we where the mock-up art work comes from, and what Valeros is fighting?

I *think* it's from Flight of the Red Raven.

Excellent. Now we need to make sure this sells well so we get more high-level modules. Which then opens the gates of possibility for an epic-level book.
Irrisen and Baba Yaga will be 2 excellent draws to sell this adventure. Good choice, Paizo!
I wonder if the witches will use the new base class as a baseline, or is "witches" just descriptive text?

There's a reason we haven't actually done much stuff with Irrisen yet. Because we don't yet have a locked-in witch!
AKA: they're witches, APG style.

Thanks, Ravenmantle.
Jacobs, if this module is an appetizer for the Baba Yaga hungry hordes, then that'll be a nice bite to tide us over. :)
It's got Irrisen (yay for mythic Finland/Russia), the Baba Yaga, and the Witch Queen (yay for a homage of Queen Jadis/the White Witch), and it'll be the first high-level standalone module Paizo has done, so of course I'll have to get it.
Dumb question while I'm here: where all has official info on Irrisen shown up?
Well, this should be nicely timed. My group should be just about done with Rise of the Runelords when this becomes available.
I have to admit, I had no idea how to write up something for a group that high level. So this is good.
What kind of chances are there that this might work as an extension of Kingmaker, for playing after the campaign has wrapped up? Or possibly as something to do in the middle to help on XP/equipment, alternately?
Of course....right as I have just started doing a game set in the Lands of the Linnorm Kings....now I have some high level adventure support to go along with it!
