We’re All Mad Here You lose your way in the woods and find a path through a willow tree arch you’ve never seen before. The path twists and turns through ever-more vibrant old groves and flower fields and you spot a young girl. She giggles as she takes your hand and whisks you away into a courtyard gala where you dance and sing amidst what seems like hundreds of smiling faces.

The Original Upside Down You’ve lost your way in the graveyard and stumbled your way through an open grave.

Giants are striding into 5e Dungeons and Dragons in this newest addition from Wizards of the Coast. In a similar vein to Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons from a couple years back, Glory of the Giants is primarily a lore book centered around the giant folk and their Ordning but with quite a bit more mechanical oomph than we got last time around. Does all this add up to something worth buying? Find your place in the Ordning and get climb...

Barbarians are creatures of adrenaline and wrath, berserkers whose blind rage and strength allow them to power through mortal wounds and cleave through the impenetrable. Paladins are living paragons of divine grace, conduits of godly power and deliverers of divine punishment. Put them together and we get a rage knight, dealing divine wrath in a zealot's fervor, if perhaps a pit less cognizant of who actually deserves it. Grab your ...
