Featured Article: Roll for Initiative! 10+ Listens Worthy of Any Dungeons & Dragons Adventurer


With the release of the movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, the classic tabletop role-playing game (RPG) is being thrust into the forefront of culture yet again. D&D has been in our lives for more than 40 years, and millions of folks globally continue to explore new realms. But the franchise is not limited to dice, guidebooks, and miniatures—in addition to film, television, music, and beyond, D&D is a natural fit for the world of audio.

I liked the Goblin PoV, made everything more interesting. Would have 5 starred it excrpt the unnatural shortness of the book made it so nothing seemed to have as much time and development as it needed. But lots of little things kept it interesting. Characters were a bit canned but could be worse.

I liked the Goblin PoV

Story very predictable. voice actor did not suite the characters. Was OK, wouldn't listen to again.

Story is OK, very predictable

A nice, quick adventure with characters who fit nicely into their tropes. It feels very much like a quest for a D&D game.

The narrator gives a wonderful performance. Each of the numerous characters get their own voice. Ranging from a quick, squeaky halfling woman to a massive and deep voiced hobgoblin.

Great narration to a fun story

The story was good. The author brought to life the goblins instead of them being faceless monsters. I did not like the narrator's tone of speaking which sounded like he was reading to grade school children.

Ok overall

A decent book

A reasonable D&D story but not very engaging. I was not enticed to finish it but others may be. Listen to the sample and see.

Story needs spirit

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The story is basic, but the adventure sterling as the editorial team capably translates the ideals of a D&D adventure from a module to the printed page with characters afforded some depth and a subterranean mystery. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Solid D&D Adventure in the Classic TSR Mode
