If not the best, very close to it, series for AD&D 1e. Not overloaded with fluff descriptions so flexible enough to make the modules work for any plot the DM sees fit to use.

Classics of AD&D adventuring and well thought out in most places. One or two minor editing hitches but they are easily handled by an intelligent GM.

QUALITY: Acceptable

VALUE: Satisfied

This set contains scans of the original G1, G2, and G3 modules, all for the price of $4.95. You can also get the super-module, GDQ1, for the same price, if you want to play the entire mini-campaign...

The scan quality is not great, but serviceable. I had to print the pages with my printer set for "Best" quality, in order to be able to read the printouts. Other than that, is is a decent enough scan.

If you play this with 2nd, or 3rd Edition D&D rules, be prepared to ramp up the PC levels by at least 5! Hill Giants, in 2nd Ed. AD&D, went from 9-HD, to 12-HD!

This is early Gygax material, and it shows. The DM is left to put together their own tactics, defenses, etc., for the giants. Matter of fact, E.G. Gygax starts out telling the DM that they need to introduce the giants' raids before starting the PC's in the module. He gives a warning about the need for PC's to establish a base camp (discussed for the DM, where, and how relatively safe it should be...), considering they will likely need to make multiple raids on the Steading. This module is bare bones, and needs a lot of fleshing out by the DM, but it is still a 'classic', in every way. Good luck!

A solid early adventure; obviously not as developed as some of his later works like the T series. Leaves significant room for the DM to place the adventure however he wants in his world with no meaningful description of surrounding towns or other establishments.
