The Land Beyond the Magic Mirror is the second module based upon the works of Lewis Carrol (The first being Dungeonland). What occurrs is a twisted violent apparition of Lewis Carrol's vision filtered through the mind of Gary Gygax. It's pure hack and slash, but a lot of fun. I remember getting chills when I saw statistics given for the Jabberwock

While this is the second adventure for the series it is easily used as a stand alone adventure. It is also a player killer, and complete meat grinder. Both adventures are a little too wierd and wild to fit into most campaigns, and I think players would (understandibly) become upset if long established characters get ripped to pieces by the Bandersnatch, or suffocated by The Mad Hatter's bizarre chapeaus. I find the module works best as a one shot/one off game with characters specifically made for the adventure, and not expected to do anything else with them.
