Continuing our journey through the short run of the Underworld Oracle fanzine we arrive at Issue 5. Issue 5 is A5 in size and has a Pink cardstock cover and white pages.  It is printed in Black and has 28 pages. Inside it has another of it's Halls of Testing dungeons.  This is by far and away the best one of the series.  The Dungeon is in fact an Inn/Hotel.  It describes the Rooms, Secret Passageways, Staff and Guests in enough detail to run with.  However you may need to elaborate in places.  You may also need to redraw the maps as the gridlines confuse the detail.  It is intended for Thieves and Assassins to carry out, well, Thefts and Kills, but can be used as an adventure for a complete party. It is produced by Lou & Sarah Nisbit, Phil Alexander and Stuart Handley.  There are contributions from Aly Morrison, Ian Patrick, David G. Wood, John Gruson and Ian Beckingham                     ...
