Shore Leave Two in Review
The PDF lacks bookmarks and is long enough with enough different sections that these would have been useful. Navigation is okay. The text maintains a single column format and some minor errors were noticed. Bar the map and covers, there are no illustrations. Presentation is okay.
As is common, many of the NPCs are gone into in more detail than was needed, as just a few stat blocks would have sufficed for most. The adventure itself is either investigation, if hired by the police, or just go and come back otherwise; in the latter case, it’s entirely possible that characters won’t discover anything odd as they may not be looking.
