I'd agree it's very much a 2nd Age sourcebook but it does detail
what was there when it was a living city rather than a ruin. Which
in turn gives some good ideas of what a hero is likely to find when
they search the ruins. I liked it enough to buy it which is more
than can be said for most of the Mongoose books.
