One of my new loves is the hardcover series, Original Adventures Reincarnated from Goodman Games.
Each focuses on a classic module from 1980s Advanced Dungeons & Dragons / D&D, explores the adventure thoroughly, and faithfully expands on the original material. They follow a similar formula: Introductions and recollections by creators and commentators in the RPG community, followed by a full reproduction of the original module, and then wraps up with a D&D 5e conversion, plus a number of new, optional encounters and adventure areas linked to the original.

They are beautiful books. Inside, each has art by excellent artists in the old school tradition – with frequent all-new Erol Otus illustrations.
Goodman Games publishes these volumes, authorized by Wizards of the Coast. While they are all still in print, available at GMG, I suspect these will go out of print and enter the collectible realm one day. There are no legal PDFs of the series, and at some point 5th Edition D&D will come to an end.
Today I have some photos of the books, along with the original modules.

ToEE was one of TSR’s supermodules, and fittingly, this is a set of 2 hardcovers in a slipcase!

Following are session 1 recaps (with pics) of our game group’s playthroughs of 2 classic modules. Each has links to the rest of the sessions. White Plume Mountain ended up being 11 sessions, and Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun 7 sessions.
