Myth Drannor shall Rise Again!,
By
This review is from: The Ruins of Myth Drannor (Hardcover)
Ruins of Myth Drannor has to be one of the BEST Forgotten Realms adventures ever to be made, together with Ruins of Zhentil Keep, Curse of the Azure Bonds, and of course Desert of Desolation! It sheds light on the magical elven city of Myth Drannor, once the "Jewel" of Cormanthor, now in ruins after having been overrun by powerful and very evil denizens. Ranging from background history, to city descriptions and the respective gods, to important people and characters, to adventure hooks and encounter tables, to magical items and artifacts, to new spells and monsters, this accessory has it all and more. There is excellent information included on adventuring parties currently operating in the vicinity, such as Zhentarim and Thayvian groups, which can in turn be placed anywhere in the Realms. As a result, I have had endless hours of gaming enjoyment playing on material presented within the pages of the Ruins of Myth Drannor Adventure! For other FR references/adventures, I recommend: the Old Empires accessory on Chessenta, Mulhorand, and Unther, the Dreams of Red Wizards accessory on Thay, the Pirates of the Fallen Stars, Moonsea, Dwarves Deep, and Draconimicon accessories (they are Second Edition AD&D, out of print and it will take a bit of searching, but it's well worth it). Also recommended, the Third Edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, which even though is quite expensive, is still very useful to all FR fans! In short, if you have a soft spot for everything elven, and you love a good fight, try and get your hands on a copy of Ruins of Myth Drannor. You will not regret it! Trust me!

Slash and hack campaigns,
By Umang Beri - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Ruins of Myth Drannor (Hardcover)
The Ruins of Myth Drannor is another one of those Forgotten Realms products which features more on suspense, thrill of adventure, hack and slash than role playing. Despite that, it has one rich history, and one scenario to either get rich quick, or die quick. I was rather pleased with the Ruins of Myth Drannor product, mostly because it had a lot of information about the elves (which is my favorite race), and gave a lot of background information of their lives before their retreat to Evermeet. The downfall of the product would be that any low level adventurers would find this product too challenging and too mind boggling to play. This is not just like any dungeon above ground setting. It is one of the only settings where you can encounter baatezu and tan'ari. Heck, if your DM is familiar with various Forgotten Realms novels, you just might encounter the "Knights of Myth Drannor", allies of Elminster.This product does feature some good monsters (like Baelnorn - undead elves), and has more than one adventure, all done well. Not recommended for roleplaying, recommended for a lot of combat, and a lot of wealth!! If you get this product, make sure you get out your dice and start practicing your rolls!! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:

Tragic superdungeon, good ol' adventure :),
By Kent David Kelly "Author & Anthologist" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Ruins of Myth Drannor (Hardcover)
Next to the first Ruins of Undermountain boxed set, this is the finest "dungeon crawl" in existence. Centuries ago, the great city of the elves was the heart of civilization - then, evil forces from around the world (and beyond) gathered together to throw the lovely Myth Drannor into ruin. No one has ever managed to delve deep enough to discover what truly happened, or what untold wealth and magics await in the depths below. Until now... you get 4 giant map posters, 8 sheets of new monsters, 8 cardsheets, 160 pages of adventures, and a lot of dead PCs - this one is for thinking, veteran players only.
