Gods & Religion:

Circle Forms (page 69): "Starting at 6th level, you can transform into a beast with a challenge rating as high as your druid level divided by 3, rounded down".
Otherwise, it seems it is maximum of CR 1 for non-Circle of the Moon druids.

Spell List:
Very similar to Wizards', but with less utility (Alarm spell is Wizard exclusive, for instance).
WARLOCK
General Feeling:
"The warlock seems really versatile. You could focus on very different things, and have a different play experience. The difference in the patrons combined with the different pacts also seems well done. I came up with 5 different character ideas based on different combinations of pact and patron."
