Greetings, Doomers! It’s that time of year again — time to start your holiday shopping! My favorite gifts to give and receive are BOOKS, which is why my Holiday Gift Guides are always book-centric. Over the years, I’ve found that it’s great to bundle book gifts with related items, such as bookmarks, games, collectibles, and accessories. That’s why our holiday gift for books is now expanded to include other items that are also commonly found in bookstores, such as puzzles, games, tarot cards, coloring books, collectibles, and more. Therefore, for many of the listings, I also included links to related/similar items, some of which might be products released prior to 2024. These might be DVD/Blu-rays, action figures, housewares, and more. So check out our expanded Holiday Gift Guide 2024: Books Edition for our favorite holiday gift picks for the readers in your life.

| Book Review: Red Side Story by Jasper Fforde
Red Side Story
Book 2: Shades of Grey
Hardcover | Kindle Edition | Audiobook
By Jasper Fforde
Publisher: Soho Press
Release Date: May 7, 2024 Jasper Fforde‘s Red Side Story, the long-awaited sequel to Shades of Grey: The Road to High Saffron, dives back into world of Chromatacia, where a person’s social status is based on their color perception. In this dystopian setting 500 years in the future, the Purples are the ruling class, while the Greys are peasants at the bottom, deprived of privilege and made to do the grunt work. The various shades of red, blue, and yellow are in the middle, with each group grasping for a bit of power.

Dungeons & Dragons: Worlds & Realms: Adventures from Greyhawk to Faerûn and Beyond
Hardcover | Kindle
By Adam Lee
Publisher: Ten Speed Press
Release Date: October 29, 2024 Good day, friends. I want to preface this review with the knowledge that I spent multiple hours writing what should have been my longest review ever, only to inadvertently lose the entire thing in the saving process. I will freely admit my editor warned me to write outside of the primary posting software, a warning that I nonetheless ignored and for which I thereby paid the highest price. So, I will do my best to replicate the review, though I admit the passion I had for this particular assignment has waned. Not because of the book itself. Dungeons & Dragons: Worlds & Realms: Adventures from Greyhawk to Faerûn and Beyond is a spectacular tome of information that dragged me kicking and screaming down memory lane. So, with that said, let me begin yet again.

Heroes’ Feast: The Deck of Many Morsels
50 Cards for Conjuring Snacks, Libations, and Sweets (Dungeons & Dragons: Heroes’ Feast Series)
Boxed Card Set
By Kyle Newman, Jon Peterson, Michael Witwer, Sam Witwer
Publisher: Clarkson Potter
Release Date: October 1, 2024 Welcome to my newest book review. Or should I say deck review? Recipe card review? Oh, whatever. Here is my newest Dungeons & Dragons-related review! Here we have Heroes’ Feast: The Deck of Many Morsels, which is a big honking box of recipe cards, hence my pondering what to call this article (although, this card set was created by the authors of Heroes’ Feast Flavors of the Multiverse: An Official D&D Cookbook). Herein are 50 cards that cover yummy appetizers, sweet snacks, and refreshing drinks, all for your consumption before, during, or after a D&D game! Of course, you may find that some of these make the regular meal rotation, as a few are simply amazing!

Dungeons & Dragons: 2024 Dungeon Master’s Guide
Hardcover | Alt Cover Hardcover
D&D Accessory
Publisher: Wizards Of The Coast
Release Date: November 12, 2024 And away we go, folks! The day has finally arrived for the much-needed revamp of the Dungeon Master’s Guide. In this particular instance, Wizards of the Coast has decided to throw caution to the wind and do a hard reboot on a lot of things. In fact, there are so many that I will not even begin to touch on them all. But is it better, you ask? Arguably so, I think. A lot of improvements and level setting of spells, items, and more. But the real change is in the approach. Allow me to explain.
