There is nothing here that an experienced DM couldn't rustle together in about 15 minutes. The adventure is extremely simple and short. The new encounter format they have designed does make it easier for those unfamiliar with the game, but for those with an ounce of experience will find the excessive details, at best annoying. The new format keeps repeating information from page to page so that a lot of the (already) thin publication is taken up with repetition. Oh, and I found at least two typos - come on Wizards, you can do better than this.
