I like this sidetrek.
It is fun, challenging and features a great, evocative new monster.
Apart from that, my only quarrel with this little piece is, that "Mysteries of the Razor Coast" as well as "Still Waters" are slightly better.
It's still a great deal.

If you bought the second wave of indulgences via SA, you got them all for 8 bucks anyway, so it's an even better deal.
Well worth your money.

On the one hand, I love the reimagination of the monk. I love the fluff.

On the other hand, there is a feat that is so over the top, it hurts.

I can only despise "Montain breaking Fist". For one feat, you get an unarmed threat range of 15-20 and ignore ANY DR apart from /epic. And you only need Improved unarmed strike, improved critical and another feat from the Pdf to take it.

This feat is so terribly broken, it really drags down the rating. I'd give this Pdf 4 Stars, but this feat is TERRIBLE. Ignore it, unless you go for insanely overpowered PCs.

Richard Pett delivers.
The adventure is lethal, well-crafted, spooky and challenging.
Environmental dangers, evocative battles and a writing that makes you really see the threats before you.
Two thumbs up, 5 stars.

...is really tangible in this great introductory adventure.
The hooks also rule.

This is what Sekolah should have been.
'Nuff said.

Designed for less experienced DMs, this Pdf gives some advice on how to run underwater adventures.

Ok for the price, but if you (like myself) have run an extended underwater adventure (e.g. the Sahuagin-trilogy in AD&D), you probably won't need it.

My least favourite Indulgence so far.

Well, it's a nice underwater sidetrek for three bucks.
It's better than a lot of other sidetreks.
Nothing too special in my opinion, but still nice to have for $3.00.
Especially in the really cheap Indulgences-wave-deal on SA.

This is the best Pdf when it comes to the topic of duels.
Easy to implement, evocative and plain incredible at the price of $1.50.
Buy this.
Now.
The rules for binds alone are worth ten times the price.

...seriously. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to run this adventure. However, I have read it. Thrice. Because I just love the ideas. Magical Hookah lounges? A masquerade? An exciting chase scene? With a (realtive) easy tie-in into any campaign world or scenario out there? With the quality I have come to expect of the collaboration of Lou and Rone? And free color handouts on the 0onegames HP? For 7 Bucks??? Seriously - this adventure, with some of the other 0onegames adventures of the Road to Revolution (especially "The bloody Fix") has been one of the best adventures I purchased during the last couple of years. Seriously, look out for anything by Lou & Rone: They combine interesting story-telling with exciting battle-situations. If you ave shied form the "Road to Revolution" until now - take a look at this one. Its tie-in to the overall plot is not that significant, making it a good sweet spot to enter or pick. I just hope that Lou and Rone won't stop writing their mature, cool, innovative adventures.
Just to mention it: The first edition suffered from some editing issues - the more recent one is better, although I agree with the criticism of prashant panavelli, although I have to admit that I personally am quite into verbose descriptions and comments. ;)

...for experienced and mature players. "The Hangman's Noose" is downright creepy and deadly.
I highly recommend it to every DM who wants to challenge his players. If they get sore about dying, however, be careful - this one is deadly!
*hehehe*

A beautifully-crafted city. Each and every person, who enjoyed the "Guide to Korvosa" or the CotCT should a least give the setting and "The Road to Revolution" a try - the Arc may well surpass CotCT, depending on the higher-level adventures to come.

There are some minor typos, but that is the only negative thing I can say about this book.

...plus, the plot as well as the adversaries are wonderful.

This is perhaps one of the finest urban adventres I have ever had the pleasure to run and can recommend it from the bottom of my heart to all but the most hardcore Kill-em-all-kick-in-the-door-groups. Buy this, you won't be disappointed. And the best part about it is, that the sequel "The bloody Fix" is even better. Buy this. Seriously. It's ridiculously cheap and absolutely marvelous.

...as the PCs get, what they expect and the scenario is well-laid out.
However, I would have liked to see a more complex adaption of the "Undead Opera scenario" - i.e. as a Pathfinder module or as a part of an adventure path. Including some Phantom of the Opera references or any kind of imaginative twist.

All right, there you go - I just read "The Bloody Fix". Although I am really tempted to claim I disliked it, "The Bloody Fix" just provoked the following reaction:
Oh my f-ing god, I love it.
Lou and Rone, you were justifiably proud. It is glorious. I absolutely loved it and I am so looking forward to reading more from you:
Lou and Rone, for all that is (un-)holy, never stop to write! Thank you very much for both your generous offers and the innovative plotline. *bows*
I'll be off now. I've got more "great city"-stuff to read!

Slave Pits of Absalom starts off with a well-presented "Damsel-in-distress-plot" and gets really cool once on the way. I'm a sucker for the three Is: Investigation, Interrogation and Infiltration. And any DM worth his salt may extend the basic plot and scenes to a bigger adventure.
(It's inspiring and you may find unofficial extra goodies on Lou's Blog at

Don't be fooled: The battles are fun as well, there is a lot of room to swashbuckle and fight smart. And the axewielding boss for once deserves his name, although I don't like the decision to make him less lethal in the revision - I'll stick to the original: Hooray for bosses that actually kill off some PCs. However: To each his own, everyone is free to stick to the weaker version.

Why then 4 Stars and not 5? Well, although the Faction Missions are fun and really well-integrated, the overall plot is not too exciting.
I'm excited to see more from Lou - and more infiltration. ;)

An aristocratic lady of dubious virtue, a lost child, dark hallways and the spirits of the dead.
However, the best thing about "Black Waters" are the emotions it may evoke when run properly.
My only quarrel with this scenario is, that it is a Pathfinder Society Scenario - One could have crafted a regular module from the ideas. I would have loved to see more details on the somewhat touching story.

First, let me state that I was not that impressed with the scenarios 1-4, though I liked Silent Tide.
This one, however, is simply a blast. It could easily be adapted to CoC, Masque of the red Death or similar settings, as it succeeds in threading the thin line between fantasy and pulp horror.
Plus: Nick Logue delivers a great atmosphere.
