For the most part I have enjoyed the Greyhawk books. Part of it is the classic dnd aspect but I think it is more because they stand alone. It isn't like the author is trying to make a long series. Sure the down side is that you don't expect to hear about the characters again, but that is the charm of it.

Like the others I have read ToH suffers in that the ending is somewhat abrupt and anticlimactic. Though there are some surprises. It just seems that when the authors got to 300 pages they were told not to worry about it.

Still. This one was good. As good as ToEE? Hard to say but I was willing to pay full price at Half Price Books for it. ( )
