Spoilers.
This is one of my go-to modules to recommend for new players and DMs. The plot is simple, the stakes are clear, the difficulty is low, each faction has something to do, and there are ample opportunities for players to demonstrate their creativity and ingenuity. Oh, and it leads nicely into the subsequent adventures in the storyline (you can run it back-to-back with DDAL05-03 Uninvited Guests and it works great).
Of course, I've done it about a million times, and after long enough the seams start to show a little. For example, it bothers me that there aren't actually any real consequences for losing things in the sandstorm. And...well, actually, now I think about it, that's pretty much it. Wow, this is a good adventure, huh?
