Amazing Reviews &Testimonials

"Brother Ptolemy and the Hidden Kingdom is one of the, if not the, best premade adventures I have ever ran ... It flowed smoothly for my group, brought lots of excitement to the table, and allowed me to add my own ideas to it without breaking a thing. It did not railroad my players or me in any sense, and has even added a lot of life and excitement to my already running campaign. I am not sure what more a GM could ask for from an adventure product." - RPG.NET Review


"... a hearty 4.5 stars out of 5 for this masterful product. It was a true joy to read and I have many simmering plans in the back of my brain to lay low on my own unsuspecting players..." G*M*S Magazine

"... buy it if you like games full of political tension, conspiracies, and good old fashioned challenging combat." - Gnomestew.com

"I really enjoyed what I read here in Brother Ptolemy & the Hidden Kingdom ... a well-written source book regarding a dark and sinister cult, with its terrible plagues and rituals, along with a solid adventure with a dynamic plot line." - ENWorld's review

"If you want some “creeping menace” in your world, you might want to incorporate the Hidden Kingdom." - Online Dungeon Master

"Brother Ptolemy makes one heck of a scary villain in my book." - Game Knight Reviews

"This is a fantastic book for anyone looking for some awesome and creepy new adversaries in their 4e D&D game. Definitely check it out." - Dice Monkey

"BP&THK presents a unique story in a way that should provide twists and turns to GMs and players alike. If you're a GM looking for some inspiration, definitely check out Brother Ptolemy & The Hidden Kingdom from Nevermet Press." - BlogCritics.com

"... a first class adventure for 4e D&D which easily rivals any of the material put out by Wizards of the Coast..." - The Dumpstat Blog

More About Brother Ptolemy & The Hidden Kingdom

The heroes have set out to find Adalisa Leighman, the lost daughter of a powerful merchant baron, and along the way they find themselves caught up into a plot to overthrow the hearts and minds of thousands in the city-state of Corwyn. All the while, the Red Harvest ravages the land, withering everything in its path and driving the sick mad with a thirst for blood. Fighting to drive back the plague, mysterious Red Monks from the Hidden Kingdom roam the land, cleansing the infected and proselytizing survivors into their own Hidden Kingdom. No one has yet been able to withstand the power the Kingdom, so the future of Corwyn, the life of Adalisa Leighman, and the conquest of the Red Harvest are now in the heroes' hands...

Say what you will about 4E vs 5E vs anything else. This is a really wonderful adventure to run whether with newbies or with old grognards. [...]

Though I feel I’ve become a bit jaded over the years as I’ve seen story after story, plot after plot, character after character repeated over and over in popular fiction, television, movies, and game materials, it’s nice to occasionally find some [...]

My overall impression is vaguely positive. If you are an avid consumer of all things related to D&D, then by all means, grab the book, you'll love it. If, like me, you're far more accustomed to traditional modules and adventures, grab it, skip to [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
