Dungeon Master For Dummies

Now updated--the insider's guide that shows Dungeons & Dragons enthusiasts how to run their own D&D games

More than 4.6 million North Americans currently play Dungeons & Dragons, the granddaddy of all fantasy roleplaying games. For every D&D game, there's a Dungeon Master--the person who directs the storyline and acts as a referee. Written by high-level insiders at Wizards of the Coast, the company behind D&D, and updated to cover the new Fourth Edition of the game as well as new online game-play options, this fun and easy guide shows current and aspiring Dungeon Masters exactly what it takes to orchestrate successful D&D adventures and campaigns. It comes complete with two new sample dungeons, color illustrations, and an indispensable gatefold Cheat Sheet.

James Wyatt (Renton, WA) is the Lead Story Designer for D&D, one of the lead designers of D&D 4th Edition, and the main author of the 4th Edition update of Dungeon Master's Guide (978-0-7869-4880-2). For Bill Slavicsek and Richard Baker's biographies, please see above.
