About this Event

After the event, Cardhaven will be running games at their store in McKenzie Alley to keep the party going!

In time for D&D's 50th anniversary, Worlds & Realms: Adventures from Greyhawk to Faerûn and Beyond by Adam Lee is an immersive exploration of fifty years of Dungeons & Dragons through the art and lore of the worlds, planes, and settings that have captivated players throughout D&D's decades of adventures and campaign storytelling. Each chapter of this sumptuously illustrated guide focuses on an iconic world or setting in the D&D multiverse, narrated by legendary mage Mordenkainen and filled with official artwork curated from fifty years of source books and adventures.
Mordenkainen muses on each location's unique features, unmistakable characters, and magical mysteries based on his experiences traveling across the planes. Written by Adam Lee, worldbuilding expert and former D&D game designer, this lavish tome also features original cover and chapter opener illustrations. Daily life in each world is creatively explored through exclusive stories penned by Jasmine Bhullar, Geoffrey Golden, Jody Houser and Eric Campbell, and Jaleigh Johnson.
From the more familiar worlds of the Material Plane to the strange and intriguing Parallel Planes, and the truly mind-bending worlds and planes beyond, both longstanding and recent D&D fans will gain new perspectives on the most beloved and memorable places in the game."Worlds & Realms is a masterwork of in-universe storytelling and organic worldbuilding that narratively unifies the D&D multiverse for the first time in its history. It is for everyone who skips the stats and tables to devour the narrative details of the campaign setting and the legendary heroes who define them." —Wil Wheaton
"This incredible journey through the fantastical realms that inspired countless tables to roll dice together is both an educational and a visual treat! A wonderful collection that marries the history of the game with in-world stories and gorgeous art to present a unique and wondrous new way to engage, or re-engage, these worlds. I thoroughly enjoyed it." —Matt Mercer

Adam Lee worked for Wizards of the Coast for more than a decade creating worlds and adventures for Dungeons & Dragons and Magic the Gathering. He now works as a story consultant, world-builder, and creative writer for Mysterious Alchemy, an IP development company that he cofounded with fellow creative and friend Ari Levitch. He is also the author of two tarot booklets and has been a tarot reader for most of his life. When he's not writing books and adventures, he's adventuring in the real world exploring the beauty of nature and consciousness.
