This is definitely one of my favorite PF books. The setting is comprehensive, with a sense of malice (the pulsating Worldwound) and the fact that it doesn't give exact dungeons (like, for example, that Mendevian fort whose name I forgot.) I'm honestly so impressed I think I'll run an open world campaign with this son of a @#$%!.

My major and only complaint is that as a skill character I felt useless. This scenario, however, made a lot of fun with it's time constrains. Until the final encounter, however, I was just "there".

...but my character felt useless. Don't get me wrong, I was a Cavalier and had something to do (I personally loved role-playing the influence attempts), but I felt like I was taking second saddle in everything, even the combat. There were a lot of great moments in this module, but none of them had anything to do with the module (e.g. a Hellknight player kept intimidating by giving out his resume full of grizzly mutiliations and playing "stab hands").

I was lucky enough to have my character have diplomacy as a class skill, even though I had a SWEET battleaxe attack bonus. The tasks you are sent on offer a wide array of roleplay and combat opportunities. If you enjoy either social interaction or interesting combat(I won't spoil anything) this is a good scenario to play.

This is the book I have been waiting for! All of a sudden, Pathfinder was a new and exciting thing again, not just another textbook! I was confused, trying to memorize traits, figure out Alchemist Discoveries, and trying to decide if I should take Dual-Minded or Ancestral Arms. If you have the Core Rulebook, buy this book.
