pickI didn‘t finish it in one day, but I did wrap it up this morning over tea. Just as good as the first, there‘s no connection between them (except a blink-and-you‘ll-miss-it cameo by an unnamed Riley). Quinn has baggage to deal with when she joins Logan‘s D&D group at her new school, and their brewing attraction could scuttle the whole game. Green flags abound in these stories! Just the pick-me-up I needed when the world is terrible.
I'm going to be running a few of the heists from here. I think I'll do a review for each one and how it went 😅
pickAnother great one in the series. Love all the characters and the stories of the adventures of the crew.

Enjoy!
bailedStructure-wise, this is a perfectly fine D&D book, but I personally didn‘t really connect with the setting or the conflicts between the various guilds. This might work better for fans of Magic: The Gathering.
pickI liked this better than Monsters of the Multiverse. What I liked best was the descriptions of various species‘ pantheons, which will be very helpful to me as I build my Elf Cleric.
When the book is just too good to stop, but you have to leave for school. Teaching kiddo the second how to read and walk safely.

so-soThere were some genuinely good moments in this book, but on the other hand, there were so many toxic male fantasy tropes.
MC being afflicted by madness was fun for a while until it was just taking too long to cure and I got sick of being hammered over the head of how everything he perceived was fake.
I could have also gone without the martial rape garbage.
so-soStructurally, this book is a Pick. Lots of info about the world of Eberron, and even a few sample adventures to get the campaign started. But content-wise, for me, it‘s a so-so, because Eberron is a grim, gritty noir world and I don‘t think I would enjoy a campaign there. I also skimmed most of the last two chapters.
