This is a fun adventure (I have read it but not run it) with some absolutely stunning art by Raluca Marinescu. It provides a new town you can add near Chult or another location of your chosing. It has several aspects that tie in with the Elemental Evil storyline and the location works as a side quest for a party in Chult. The town is primarily inhabited by Shou people, which allows a tie-in to any adventures themed with the Kara-Tur setting (hey, you could run Adamantine Chef after this).
There are some minor grammatical issues and a few cases where the plot can be a bit tricky... however, I was able to make sense of it and it is a fun plot my gaming group would enjoy. As a DM, I recommend thinking through how your players might react to the situations and consider ways to use the excellent NPCs to create role-playing opportunities and keep the party engaged while in the tavern. The time estimate of 3-6 hours seems right, and there are opportunities for a DM to expand the final area further.
Overall, this is a very solid adventure. The excellent maps and arts edge it into the 5-star rating, especially for DMs who will take the time to understand the plot and work with the plans their characters may hatch. Recommended!
