5.0 out of 5 stars 1983 edition is invaluable, May 1, 2000
This review is from: World of Greyhawk (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Boxed Set) (Hardcover)
For Dungeon Masters who wish to run epic classic campaigns in the World of Greyhawk, this boxed set has never been equalled. Inside, you get - two amazingly huge poster maps of the entire Flanaess, complete with hexagonal grid (you won't believe the size of these - you'll need to mount them on an open wall), Gygax's 80-page Guide to the World of Greyhawk (including full color coats of arms, weather, calendars, history, cultures, runes, endless adventure hooks, maps, adventure sites, gods, and much more), and Gygax's 48-page Glossography. The Glossography includes rules for wilderness travel, amazingly detailed encounter tables for the entire Flanaess, names, classes and levels of the mightiest lords in Greyhawk, weather rules, many fleshed-out adventure ideas (including the infamous Jungle of Lost Ships), quasi-deities, religious orders for clerics, and more. This is it - the definitive resource for the best roleplaying world of them all; it indisputably earns my highest recommendation.

5.0 out of 5 stars The original D&D world stands the test of time, November 12, 2004
By 
This review is from: World of Greyhawk (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Boxed Set) (Hardcover)
Still one of the best player aids ever made, the World of Greyhawk stands the test of time. D&D fans who have played in the classic adventures such as the Temple of Elemental Evil know well its worth. This set comes with maps and setups that will easily assist a novice player in learning the rules of the game and give the experience player or Dungeon Master a rich world in which to create. Highly recommend, especially if you're of the Forgotten Realms universe and want to experience the classic world of original D&D.

4.0 out of 5 stars 1980 edition is outdated, but beautiful to behold, May 1, 2000
This review is from: World of Greyhawk (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Boxed Set) (Hardcover)
This is it, the first-ever release of Gary Gygax's epic world of adventure for AD&D - the World of Greyhawk! You get the famous oversized portfolio to keep it all in, plus the World of Greyhawk Gazettee - including details on wilderness adventures, the calendar of the Flanaess, climate, history, maps, complete details on every realm, the wilderness, royalty, knighthood, and runes and sigils. Plus, the two giant poster maps of the Flanaess, in glorious full color - you won't believe the size and sheer spectacle of this legendary world until you see it!
