For new Dungeon Masters, this module can be intimidating. However, the structure is logical. It starts with a city, moves to the wilderness, then a ruined city, and finally a dungeon. Reading the Tomb of Annihilation PDF from start to finish before running it is highly recommended. The digital format allows for highlighting and note-taking. You can annotate your PDF with reminders about which foreshadowing clues to drop in the early chapters. This preparation is key to weaving a cohesive story where the payoff in the final tomb feels earned and significant for the players.
