Product Description
Descend into the depths of the world!
No realm in the
D&D® world stirs the imagination like the Underdark. This vast subterranean domain holds thousands of adventure possibilities and myriad threats, including drow, mind flayers, dragons, and worse! Entire campaigns can unfold in its depths, and its rewards are boundless.
Underdark™ contains everything a Dungeon Master needs to run adventures or campaigns set in the vast underworld of his or her
D&D campaign, including new monsters and hazards, ready-to-play encounters, monster lairs, and detailed information on various dark-dwelling “movers and shakers.”

I have to say that this is one of the better DM-only fluff books to come out of 4e. It concentrates heavily on the movers and shakers of the Underdark, including kuo-toa, aboleths, beholders, mind flayers and drow. It delves into the monster and societies of the Shadowdark and Feydark and offers enough strong plot hooks to fill several campaigns. The writing is clear and crisp and the new monsters are fun (and the stats can be found on the DDI). I was wondering at first how this book would differ from all the other 3rd edition books on the same subject, but it treads quite a bit of new ground and is just fun to read. Thumbs up.

I gave up on 4th edition shortly after buying this. Nothing to do with this, just 4th Ed. in general.
