I just got Beyond Countless Doorways. Quite frankly, it was disappointing. I read 6-9 of the places, and they just did not have the right feeling. They'd make great planets for Spelljammers to visit, but they were not planes.

I could have done better.

*nodding* I just got the book myself and I'll have to differ with you on your opinion. While I won't use things straight out of the book it's great for an idea mine. I adored 'The Maze' among other planes in the book. They'd work great as domains on the planes of the Great Wheel or as demiplanes unto themselves.

I'll eventually get around to writing up my glowing opinion of the book and those planes which I adored, which I liked, and which I thought the least of the batch. Overall I'd give it an 8.5 or 9 out of 10 at this point. It's inspired, something that none of the latest WotC books have managed (with the exception of some of the FR material which has continued to be of very high quality).

Cool! Then you owe it to us and yourself to do it!

Lemme see those planes of yours!

After I write my "Manifest Destiny d20" book, I'll do "Plane Crazy".
