Reception
John ONeill of Black Gate commented: "I have high hopes that this will usher in the return of the boxed adventure. But even it it doesn't, I'm very glad to have this one. My advice: grab it before it too becomes a collector's item."[1]
Shannon Appelcline called the book "a nice complement to the earlier planar manuals: Manual of the Planes (2008), The Plane Below: Secrets of the Elemental Chaos (2009), and The Plane Above: Secrets of the Astral Sea (2010), leaving only a book on the Feywild to fill out the World Axis. Within the Points of Light world, Shadowfell would have been a nice companion to "Gazetteer: The Nentir Vale", but unfortunately that book had disappeared from Wizards' schedule late in 2010."[2]
