Underdark from Wizards of the Coast for 4e D&D is a book that should give a DM everything that they need to run a game in the deadly underground setting below many fantasy realms in the game. And in this book succeeds in doing just that, IF you are willing to accept their story for the Underdark, a story which is vastly different than any previous story of the [...]
