Jacques Masternone ,

Delightful!

A wonderful way to draw folks into the world of D&D while keeping it a high quality audio drama, the cast is brilliant, editing superb, and we love it when they break the 4th wall. Lots of fun! Can’t wait to see how it all plays out. Yours truly - The nameless archer ;)
