Key Information

Overview

[edit]

30 Years of Adventure presents the history of D&D in mostly-chronological order, beginning with the creation of the game by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, and ending with Hasbro acquiring Wizards of the Coast. It includes chapters devoted to the development history of various D&D campaign settings such as the World of Greyhawk, Dragonlance, and the Forgotten Realms. In keeping with its historical theme, nearly all of the book's artwork is taken from D&D products of the era.

30 Years of Adventure also features short essays by a variety of celebrities (including comedian Stephen Colbert, actor Wil Wheaton, and animator Genndy Tartakovsky), describing their experiences with Dungeons & Dragons. The book's foreword is written by actor Vin Diesel.
