Enter the Stolen Lands, a wilderness claimed by nobles, bandits, and beasts alike. Into this territory the fractious country of Brevoy sends its emissaries, tasking them with subduing the lawless folk and deadly creatures that have made it a realm of savagery and shame. Beyond the last rugged frontier stretches the home of voracious monsters, capricious fey, wily natives, and bandits who bow to the rule of a merciless lord none dare defy. Can the PCs survive the Stolen Lands, bring their dangers to heel, and lay the foundations of a new kingdom? Or will they just be one more fateful band, lost forever to the ravenous wilds?
This volume of Pathfinder Adventure Path launches the Kingmaker Adventure Path, and includes:

I really struggled to get into this one. I have picked up every issue since number one and for the most part they have all been spot on. This whole series has just not quite done it.( I did my review after all 6 parts were released for fairness sake.) the writing is good the maps and illustrations top notch but the story didn't grab me and my players. The whole sandbox thing seemed cool and I would like to see it done again. Like I said I wanted to like this more.
For those players who have never had the chance to play in a sandbox campaign this is a great example. A wide open map and adventure that has a beginning and end but allows the DM great latitude in bringing things together at his own pace.
The sense of wonder that this AP has instilled in my older players reminds me why it's still fun to play this great game!
I have had my PDF & now my hard copy for over a week now. So far, everything I have read for this AP is just awesome. The story line, as well as the setting, are some of the best I have seen from Paizo. This AP is also one that I feel that could be ported to another campaign world a lot easier than any of the previous ones, if one was so inclined to do.
The only reason this is a 4 star rating is due to the PDF. The PDF does not have bookmarks. Bookmarked PDFs are the main reason to want the PDF. Makes it easier as a GM to run an adventure with bookmarks. That is especially with the sandbox nature of this AP. The PCs will be all over the place in the story, so I feel that Paizo really needs to update the PDF with some bookmarks.
[Paizo notes: Both the single-file and one-file-per-chapter versions of the PDF do contain bookmarks, and lots of 'em. I've contacted the reviewer.]
The problem was with my Adobe Reader. After reinstalling it now shows the bookmarks. Adjusting this to 5 stars.

I ordered both the first and second adventure PDFs just so that I could get access to the interactive map documents, like those that appear in my Paizo adventure path subscription orders. I wanted to print them for our game today, but lo and behold, NO MAPS! I also own the PDF of the map folio, but that doesn't have the combat maps in it either.
What gives?
I tried both copying and exporting them right out of the adventure path PDF and into Photoshop, but they are much too low rez to be usable (possessing enough dpi to print at a only a couple of inches), and the square grid isn't even square on some of them!
