From New York Times bestselling author Molly Knox Ostertag and critically acclaimed illustrator Xanthe Bouma comes an all-new Dungeons & Dragons graphic novel series! Middle school is a dungeon... At least, that's how Jess sees it. Luckily, she and her best friend Olivia know how to escape into the sprawling worlds of their own imaginations. The two friends have always loved making up stories, first with little kid games of make-believe, and more recently with the fantasy roleplaying game, Dungeons & Dragons. When they play, Olivia runs the game as Dungeon Master and Jess is the solo party member, playing a take-no-prisoners, lone-wolf fighter of her own design named Sir Corius. But when Olivia wants to add new players to their group, Jess finds herself struggling to share their game--and her best friend. Will their epic campaign withstand all this change, or has their adventure--and their friendship--finally come to an end?

Fun little book to encourage fantasy and also dealing with changes of being able to open up to others and get to know them.
Molly just knocks it out of the park with this art! Every panel has a nice layout, pallet, and expression. Just fantastic!
The story is a great coming of age story and I think also nicely demonstrates that D&D is a useful tool for practicing situations in real life. Our protagonist like to tell stories, draw, and daydream and sometimes unlikely friends can get very close if you give it a chance! Excited to see this continue!
