Not the best issue ever, but nowhere near the worst.
I really enjoyed the Imps of Ill-Humor and the Magic Schools. The staff article was pretty good. The big article on Boccob was very good. I like the way this new column has started.
I didn't like the lack of the Bazaar of the Bizzare, but oh well.
The ecology of the Spell Weaver, and that funky Spell Weaver spellbook were both good articles.
Lastly, hooray for OotS finally being in Dragon. (It was hilarious!)
