5.0 out of 5 stars Adds depth to the classic monsters of the game, April 29, 2000

Here it is... one of the rarest books in the AC series, complete and intact! This in-demand sourcebook features wonderful mini-adventures for all of the classic dragons (Black, Gold, Green, Opal, Red, Ruby, and White) and the most famous giant clans (Cloud, Fire, Frost, Hill / Mountain, Stone, and Storm). Each encounter is well-thought out, creative, and challenging; but what's more, each one also offers *exclusive* lore on the featured creature! You'll only find it here. The inside folder is a beautiful illustrated relative size chart of all the species - a classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let's talk about that nifty spell generator, July 22, 2010

Set aside the booklet of mini-adventures, I like the Dragon Spell Generator. The various dragon types in classic D&D are often limited spell-users, making them even more formidable adversaries in the hands of a clever DM. The Spell Generator does exactly what it claims, and allows for the quick creation of a spell-using dragon, by color type. The Generator also has stat blocks of all the D&D dragons for quick reference.

The random spell generator the back cover blurb is referring to is the inner 3-panel cover (the outer cover is 2-panel). One leaf of the inner cover has lists of spells, the other two leafs having punch-outs allowing only certain spells to be revealed. An errata sheet also comes with the accessory, because TSR missed a few spots to punch-out, so the errata sheet serves as a template for DIY cutting. This dragon spell generator is frequently missing from used copies.

Maybe a third of the adventures are alright, most of the rest are ridiculous. I don't think the book gives any REAL insight into dragons or giants. If you are in the mood for some silly short adventures then you might be alright with this product, but otherwise you'll hate it.
