I found Moore's stories to be very good from an atmosphere perspective, and I think the characters take a back seat to the atmosphere in some of the stories.

It was a good read, but I didn't connect to the main character very much. I can usually connect with characters in other stories in the genre.

The cover art is very cool!

Gygax is not the best writer in the world, but this is a fun book to read. I read it in a single go!

Certainly, it's better than any Drizzt novel I've read, and at times it channels some Howard.

Give it a go.

This is a really nice book. For an art book, it's at what I consider a standard price. 4 stars because it was missing some of the more recent art from dragon I would have expected, and only made mention of many of the interior illustrations (would it have been hard to show more than one of the comics from over the years?).
Anyway, this is a cool product, and will sit next to my tsr art books. ;)
Now... where's my art of Dungeon?

Just like the title says. Picked one up from paizo and a couple at gencon. They're not as good as one can do with a paintbrush, but they're much better than unpainted leads and cheaper (and much easier) to acquire in bulk than are wotc's offerings.

I recently ran a group through this and it went very well. This would be a 5 but for a few editing errors and the ease with which a smart party can take care of everything in the monastery.

Seriously, if you need an eight foot tall lich, you can't go wrong. The encounter stuff is also quite fun, though I purchased mainly for the metals.
