Fun little excursion that got better as it went along. Nice references to The Adventure Zone and many other gaming groups. Rothfuss did a good job capturing the voices of the characters. It was easy to hear them talk and the dialogue made sense for everyone.Art was decent. Some pages weren’t so hot. A surprising amount of misspellings. Overall, a worthy read.3.5 / 5
This Review ✍️ Blog 📖 Twitter 🐦 Instagram 📷★ I did not know that this existed until I had a conversation with my friend Andrew and he mentioned it. I have yet to read anything by Patrick Rothfuss so I was excited for this as I love Rick and Morty. I also need to mention that D&D is not really a thing where I live and never was. I know it is important for many people but my knowledge of it is just through shows and books, I never played it.★ The drawing was good and I really felt that I was watch...
Yes, this is what Patrick Rothfuss has been spending time on instead of writing the third book of the Kingkiller Chronicles. This is your standard Rick and Morty comic book, this one having the family playing Dungeons and Dragons. This is almost something of a primer, like Zub and Rothfuss were trying to introduce Rick & Morty fans to the joys of D&D.
THIS. WAS. SO. FUN.This was one of my first graphic novels, I've read the first two compendiums of The Walking Dead but it's probably been 8 or 9 years since then. I happened to see this while browsing through Barnes & Noble and absolutely had to have it! Not only do I love Rick and Morty but I also love Patrick Rothfuss! (even though weirdly I haven't read his books yet? haha I think it's because I also follow him on Twitter and he's hilarious). Anyways, I saw the Barnes & Noble exclusive editi...
This was a fun idea, but I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more if I knew anything about D&D beyond The Adventure Zone. It seemed to be structured more for people who knew a lot of the background of the game and the differences between the different versions, although there were still some funny parts for the rest of us too. If you're not super into D&D you could probably skip this, but it's still a decent read.Some highlights:Well honestly this is more of a lowlight, but if I had to see it then
This was underwhelming. A couple of giggles in places, but mostly getting through this (very short) comic felt like a chore. The story is incoherent and doesn’t seem to have a point. There is no plot to speak of.
loved it.
This is an odd one. The very first half is typically crass and Rick & Morty-ish, but the second feels like Patrick Rothfuss took over complete control and penned a heartfelt love letter to the transformative power of D&D. Characters learn and grow—even Rick—which feels rather off-brand. If you got "all the feels" from Critical Role and The Adventure Zone's later arcs, you'll probably dig it.
This was fun. A short one, I believe Rothfuss and Zub would have more to say on this topic, but better short than dull. Well, Morty needs to learn D & D to pursue some love interest, so grandpa Rick comes in help... Of course in his own egoistic and haughty way, dragging the whole family along to the adventure beyond imagination. And that's fun. And intense. Maybe too much intense, like trying hard to put every idea, joke, twist and action on the paper. Anyway, the end is nice and it's relaxing
I had high expectations and they were totally met on every level. This was a blast overall. Fun, extremely well-done, well-illustrated, and with the kind of heart-twisting I expect from Rothfuss. I'm familiar enough with DnD that I got a lot of the references (some still went right by me), but my friend who isn't yet far down the nerd road borrowed this as soon as I was done, wolfed it down, and still thought it was great. So that's really saying something.I hope they do more of these!
Warning: If you haven't ever played D&D or any other RPG game you probably won't enjoy this as you should, even if you're a Rick and Morty fan.The tropes of Rick and Morty are still there - Morty needs to learn how to play D&D to amaze a girl he's into and Grandpa Rick just happens to be a hardcore D&D player. To show him the ropes Rick will take Morty and the rest of the family to a dimension which is like a world of D&D. Somehow Rick gets screwed by the Gamemaster and ends up as lame gnome bar...
I haven't played D&D in aaaaaages so I really really enjoyed this!

- Patrick Rothfuss- Dungeons & Dragons- Rick & MortyWhat more can you ask for? And on top: this was really really good and did never felt like a cashgrab to popularize one of those franchises (because both are already well famous).What I liked most is that they introduce the whole game, mechanics, classes, terms and easter eggs in a lovely and thrilling way! Perfect for Newbies and also for Veterans.Great Artworks too and as a bonus you get player sheets already filled out from the characters ri...
