Third Party D&D: Tome of Beasts II (Kobold Press)

Whenever I manage to get caught up on my reviews of official D&D products, I like to delve into the deep waters of third-party releases. To date, I’ve focused on releases from Kobold Press. This publishing house is renown for their quality products. As I’ve discussed on this site in the past, I’ve been extremely impressed with their monster collections;...

Dungeons & Dragons: Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft

For me, Ravenloft has always been one of the most fascinating settings for Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had a fascination with gothic horror. This is something that originally stemmed from viewing old Universal Monster movies as a young child. Then, around the age of thirteen I got my hands on an old copy...

Dungeons & Dragons: Candlekeep Mysteries

One of my favorite things about fifth edition D&D is the new trend of publishing adventure collections in a single book. We’ve seen this in releases like Tales from the Yawning Portal and Ghosts of Saltmarsh. Well, once again Wizards of the Coast has given us a new collection to dig into with the release of Candlekeep Mysteries. Candlekeep is...

Dungeons & Dragons: Into the Borderlands (Official Reprint)

This is a post that I’ve been wanting to write for sometime. Now that I’m all caught up on my current D&D releases, this is a good time to take a look at some of the “deep cuts” that are floating around bookstore shelves. In the past, I’ve discussed two third-party D&D books; the Tome of Beasts and the Creature...

Dungeons & Dragons: Tasha’s Cauldon of Everything

Dungeons & Dragons is more popular than ever. As a result, fans are clamoring for more options than what can be found within the covers of the basic Player’s Handbook. Since the release of the 5th Edition of D&D, there’s been a handful of releases that provided a few new options here and there. But up until now, only the...

Dungeons & Dragons: Icewind Dale – Rime of the Frostmaiden

Icewind Dale; one of the northernmost reaches of the Forgotten Realms. An area famous for being an untamed artic wilderness filled the frightening monsters and undiscovered treasures. It’s an isolated region where only the hardy survive. Its frigid environment makes it the perfect setting for this time of year. So it’s fitting that it is also one of WotC’s most...

Dungeons & Dragons: Mythic Odysseys of Theros

It’s been a few months since I’ve made a Dungeons & Dragons related post. But I’m back today to discuss one of the latest D&D releases, The Mythic Odysseys of Theros. Now, this is a book that I wasn’t really sure about before I actually got my hands on it. The marketing materials that came out in advance of this...

Third Party D&D: Tal’dorei Campaign Setting

Last month I posted a review for the Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount – an official product for D&D that featured Matt Mercer’s world of Exandria. In case you’ve been living under a rock, Exandria is the gameworld featured in Critical Role, a popular live-play D&D podcast. Many people consider Critical Role to be instrumental in D&D’s recent mainstream success. The...

Dungeons & Dragons: Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount

Man-oh-man! Wizards of the Coast has really been pumping out some major content lately! One my original criticisms with 5th Edition D&D was the fact that seemed destined to ignore all of the other previously published campaign settings and were exclusively focused on the Forgotten Realms.. Thankfully, a few years ago we began to see a shift in this behavior...
