One of the great adventures

This book contains everything you need to run the campaign. The maps are easy to read, the encounters contain everything you need to run the monsters without having to open the monster manual, there are plenty of NPCs built into the adventure for fleshing out time in the city. I really recommend this book to and DMs out there who want to save some time but run an in-depth campaign.

fantastic module

I have purchased several of the new modules produced by Wizards of the Coast,including Expedition to Undermountain,Expedition to the Demonweb Pits,and Expedition to castle Ravenloft.This module is the best among all of those.The encounters are believable,the story plot is plausable and intriguing,and the recommended character level suggested seems to actually match the encounters unlike the previous mentions.
There is a wealth of information inside and plenty of story hooks to run side adventures without deviating to far from the original story goals.
I highly recommend this module,it should provide several months of play if used for a 4-6 hour session per week.

Greyhawk, at last!

This is a great book, full of very good material and not only for old Greyhawkers like me.
"Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk" is an adventure, basically, but it's also an unvaluable Gazetteer of the city of Greyhawk, bringing back to life the city with its places (from the "Green Dragon Inn" to Castle Greyhawk) its characters (from Zagig to Robilar) and its glorious history.
Even if you don't want to delve into the dungeons of the castle and into the plot you can find plenty of ideas and cues suitable for your home-made adventures.
Focusing on the adventure, the plot is not flawless, in my opinion: there are some strained situations where the motivations for the PCs are weak, but the overall impression is not bad. I appreciated the innovative managing of the encounters through sort of index-cards including maps and stats: a very good concept.
Finally, the edition is high quality: paper, art, maps are excellent.

Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk

As an old D&Der, I had played in this module many years ago and always loved it. Now with this new update to the old dungeon, and in the 3.5 format, I can once again return to a favorite "Dungeon Crawl" adventure.

Pro's: Well written and well thought out. Easy to use, Encounters referenced by page and section, Specific encounters published at the end of each chapter.

Cons: Having the old original module I was dissappointed that more of the dungeon wasn't mapped out (Spoiled by the old TSR adventure) for a DM to use. Some grammatical and spelling errors, but not many. As I said before, I was spoiled. But that's it for the Cons so far.

If you want a pre-written adventure, then this will last a DM a long time and provide great ideas for side treks.

The best of the best

I am always willing to pan a bad product. This aint it!
After reading through the module I find it is well written, contains a cogent adventure path, new and recurring characters, and a myriad of side quests to interest players and intrigue DMs.
I think this super module redeems the name of 'Castle Greyhawk' and will prove to be one of the 20 best D&D modules if not amongst the top 10. It moves the level of game play up a notch by having riveting above AND below ground play potential. I'd say this module does for 3rd edition what the 'Temple of Elemental Evil' did for 2nd edition.
