I can't find any specific credits (that is, which author wrote which adventure). Am I blind, or is that not public info?

Yeah I have to agree. Yet again the quality is simply outstanding!

I am slightly surprised no one has commented on the character who appears on pg133 for the first time - or are you a) still reading or b) trying not to give away any spoilers?

Ah yes, I loved the songs but haven't mentioned that section wishing to avoid spoilers.

Well, we knew from the previews that he would show up in the adventures so it wasn't really a surprise. Unfortunately I think his apperance in the (otherwise truly excellent) adventure is a bit lacking. He's a mysterious character, and to have the players just travel to his cabin on a mission from Gandalf, finding it, talking to him and returning is somewhat lackluster, even if the meeting (and the Song contest!) is well described. I guess I was expecting something more...mysterious from him.

To be fair, Tom B is a bit of a Marmite character even for people that *love* the rest of the books!

I really hope people like the adventures though; after reading them all now I'm very impressed with the quality, but then I am just a little biased!
