We'll be updating live from the afternoon session of the D&D Creator Summit so refresh for new content. D&D Virtual Tabletop The afternoon session began with a look at the upcoming D&D Virtual Tabletop (VTT). Screenshots of the livestream were not allowed so I can't show you what we saw.

D&D's Upcoming Digital Tabletop
Perhaps the showstopper of todays D&D Direct event was a preview of the upcoming D&D digital playspace. Hosts Gina Darling and Ify Nwadiwe met with Kale Stutzman, principal game designer of D&D Digital, where he ran them through an adventure using the technology. The video shown in the presentation, though, was labeled “Pre-alpha gameplay footage.”

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: The Feast of the Moon Review
All stops have been pulled out to promote the Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves movie, including a prequel graphic novel from IDW, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: The Feast of the Moon. Unfortunately, it makes mistakes I expected the two prequel prose novels to make.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Movie Review
To say that the original 2000 Dungeons & Dragons movie was a critical failure is an understatement. By contrast, if the new movie, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves isn't a cinematic natural 20, it's at least a 19.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: The Druid's Call Review
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: The Druid's Call is the second prequel novel laying the ground work for the March 31 release of the Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves movie. Between this YA novel by E.K. Johnston and Jaleigh Johnson's Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: The Road to Neverwinter novel, I'm cautiously optimistic about the direction being taken for the movie.

Honor Among Thieves: Road to Neverwinter Review
I'm frequently disappointed by media tie-in novels. Many are lackluster or feel like they're going through the motions. That makes Jaleigh Johnson's Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: The Road to Neverwinter, one of two prequel novels for the movie releasing on March 31, such a pleasant surprise.

Breaking into Keys from the Golden Vault: An In-Depth Review
While not a direct tie-in to the D&D: Honor Among Thieves movie, Keys From the Golden Vault is a smart release a month before the movie opens.

Dragons & Treasures: A Young Adventurer's Guide Review
Dragons & Treasures: A Young Adventurer's Guide is the latest officially licensed D&D book by Jim Zub, with Stacy King and Andrew Wheeler. The series, which has five prior books, makes D&D accessible for a younger audience. They don't list mechanics for how to play or make a character. Instead the series focuses on lore and information that bring the setting to life and help youngsters decide...
Critical Role  Dungeons & Dragons  Novels  Reviews 
Critical Role: The Mighty Nein – The Nine Eyes of Lucien Review
Critical Role: The Mighty Nein – The Nine Eyes of Lucien walks a very tricky line. The prior Critical Role novel, Vox Machina – Kith & Kin was easy because it entirely took place before Vox Machina formed so newcomers to Critical Role and fans of Critical Role: Vox Machina were on equal ground.
