An Historical View of D & D Adventures

I have been playing Dungeons and Dragons for over twenty years, so when I saw they were releasing a "Dungeon Survival Guide" as a part of of their young readers line of books, I wondered what it would be like. I have already read the Practical Guide to Dragons and A Practical Guide to Monsters, and was impressed at the way that Wizards was trying to reach out to a new audience. Both of those books were attached to young readers book series, while the Dungeon Survival Guide isn't. It is, in its own way, attached to the role playing game directly instead. Most veteran gamers will wince at this book, we can be an entitled lot thinking that all products are just for us. But, if I were ten years old again and was wondering what all those guys at the book/comic shop were talking about when discussing "White Plume Mountain" or "The Temple of Elemental Evil," this book would have given me just enough information to want to play the game attached with the book. In fact, as I read it as a veteran gamer, I find the stroll through my own memories to be almost as pleasant. This book isn't for everyone, and it might be a little pricey for a walk down memory lane, but if you are a parent wondering what kinds of adventures D & D typically expects its players to participate in -- then this is the book for you.
