Any fan of The Guild would love to have this. I read a digital ARC (yes, it took me a very long time to get around to finishing it) and enjoyed it loads. The hardcover would be a great addition to any nerd's collection.
Thanks to Edelweiss for the review copy!

Meh.
I think it’s too dated at this point. Gaming culture has progressed and is slightly less toxic now. It was neat to spend some time with the characters again, but this isn’t going to be worth picking up again for me and unless you’ve seen The Guild, I wouldn’t read it.

still trying to wrap my thoughts around this one. it was good but for some reason I didn't love it? I liked the story and the characters, specially Cyd (poor thing deserved better) but it just didn't do it for me. I really disliked the art, that probably had something to do with it.

I loved The Guild web series so when I saw this cover, I immediately requested the ebook. It turned out to be a collection of comics, all prequels to to the series. We learn more about what led Codex, Tink, Clara, Bladezz, Vork, and Zaboo to being a part of the Knights of Good. I loved the glimpses into each of their backgrounds, many enhanced by the actors helping to write more about the characters. I didn't love all the drawings (could nobody get Clara right?) but it was nice to see a range of artists stepping in. It helped to separate the stories.
A nice addition to The Guild series. I would definitely look forward to more in this vein.
