I don't see if you mentioned the art was AI or not in the pamphlet.  Or who wrote, edited, laid out, etc. I hope I just missed it, because you should attribute yourself if you did it. 

The concept of a moon maiden and cult worshiping the dark side of the moon is a fun subversion of the traditional moon cult trope. There were points I felt the descriptions carried too far and could have used more incubation to distill them down. I like the direction this is heading and hope to see what more you do with it.

The images are so striking!

I was also saddled with a few pin-up covers with little pulpy, visual substance, but I think this adventure does an excellent job of transforming the visual elements into something creatively unique. The random tables are a great utility here. I think you could have afforded to be a little more terse with your descriptions, but the layout and style are clear and direct. Solid work.

Love all the useful descriptors to help with building the environment.
