In the spirit of full disclosure, I was one of the playtesters on this product.
Thrudheim is a great setting, giving a bleaker, more serious feel to the world than is common in most of the DnD and Pathfinder modules I’ve played. While the artwork didn’t grab me, the descriptions did. The creators know their Norse mythology and do a good job of capturing the spirit of those myths in the challenges that face the PCs. The book is laid out wonderfully, making it easy to run the game, and the stock characters are fleshed out and simple to incorporate for new players.
I had a blast playing through this adventure with my friends and would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in a fresh theme for their DnD games or in introducing new players to the possibilities inherent in RPGs in general.
Try it out and find glory immortal in the songs of skalds!
