The Adventure Zone: The Suffering Game by Griffin McElroy (Author), Clint McElroy (Author), Justin McElroy (Author), Travis McElroy (Author), and Carey Pietsch (Illustrator)
Taako, Magnus, and Merle are sent on a quest to find the penultimate Grand Relic: the Animus Bell. However, they are told that they will be put through the most punishing "game" possible and that they will have to sacrifice greatly to retrieve the vital magical object. They are also told to avoid Red Cloaks at all costs, but then why does a Red Cloak appear to be helping them both before these trials and during? What is hidden from our heroes? And what has become of the Grand Relics, our heroes, and the GM himself?
Immensely engaging and charmingly illustrated, this latest volume in The Adventure Zone graphic novel series finally tugs on some threads that had frayed earlier. Additionally, the breaking of the fourth wall pays off in ways that readers will not expect. While many questions are answered by the end, that does not mean the story is by any means over. Readers will eagerly await the next volume.
