Paizo has learned alot in the five years they've been at this, and it shows.
I have the original 6 books, and I love them. But this... This is a much much better product!
They've updated some of the art, and kept the pieces that were good. The result is a beautiful book!
The map design is better, the room blocks with their descriptions are updated and much better, the design is more in line with the more modern Adventure Paths.. Everything is better.
The originals were a bit confusing at times, but it looks like the updated version have clarified quite a few things (especially in the maps)
All in all, I'm really really happy with this, and wish the rest of the 3.5 APs vere updated as well. One of the most impressive products I've seen from Paizo to date!
