Dungeons & Dragons Worlds & Realms: Adventures from Greyhawk to Faerûn and Beyond Hardcover – October 29, 2024

For anyone playing or just interested in D&D this is a wonderful book. It's like an overview of many of the different settings featured in the many adventure books. It's written in an entertaining style and there are numerous illustrations throughout. It's nice to see a mix of vintage artwork along with the current style of art. The book covers quite a lot and since I'll never get to play all of the different adventure books this is a fun way to get a sense of the different areas in The Forgotten Realms. Does it cover everything you could possible want to know about D&D lore? No, but that's okay. This is a solid overview. If you want to get into something very specific I personally enjoy seeking out vintage novels, setting books and modules. Production-wise this is a large oversize hardcover, study binding, and good quality paper and reproductions. Feels like a top quality art book. The design layout of the pages could be more elegant but it's functional. Overall this is a fun book and highly recommended for both new and old players alike. I hope this review helps!

360 pages or some great art and great lore. If you are interested in lore than I’d suggest this book.

I don’t just read rule/sourcebooks for reference when I’m in campaigns. I read them because I absolutely love the world of Dungeons & Dragons. This unending canvas of fantasy fun has followed me since I was in high school. When I heard that Worlds & Realms would be complete with lore, history and stories from all across the in-game multiverse, I was sold. I rarely ever pre-order books, but I made an exception this time and I do not regret it for a second. It’s rich with information and detail, paired with incredible art from page to page. By far, this has to be my favorite of the D&D ‘books. I couldn’t recommend it enough. If you’re into the lore and diverse settings of D&D like I am, you’ll be head over heels in love with Worlds & Realms.

Good read thus far and worth buying. For someone who's new to dnd, I find it very useful in learning about the game's settings and more.

without doubt, this is a book made with a lot of love for D&D's many campaign worlds. It really dives in depth into the various campaign settings: Greyhawk, Mystara, Eberron, Forgotten Realms, Spelljammer, Dragonlance, including the inner, outer planes, the transitive planes (astral) which is essentially Planescape. It's a literal wikipedia with stunning art of lore. One unfortunate omission is Athas, the world of Dark Sun, though I imagine it's due to the controversial nature of the setting. The art gathers pieces old and new from about 50 years of published campaign material, though Ive never really seen it printed in such vivid quality and color, the pages are thick glossy stock, binding is very solid, this book is meant to last many decades. Overall if you have a Dungeon Master in your life, this is the perfect book to get them.

Beautiful, Heavy, Hardback, and very colorful!

As someone new to D&D, I frequently want to learn more about the world's and realms of the multiverse. I'm not quite ready to create my own world, and maybe never will be. This book provides a lot of valuable insight and information told from the perspective of a D&D legend. It's beautifully illustrated, well organized, and full of useful information about a variety of subjects.The book does look like it was dropped on one corner, damaging the binding slightly. The book is whole though and I'm satisfied with the product! I look forward to creating adventures for my table using this as a tool to provide insight into the worlds of D&D.

great if you like these books
