So, you want to play Dungeons & Dragons? You're gonna need a Player's Handbook. One of the three iconic titles in the core rule set – the others being Dungeon Master's Guide and Monster Manual – this book is an invaluable reference guide for novice and experienced players alike. Each page bubbles with exquisite artwork, alongside taut new rules and exciting character options. There's host of recognizable classes and races - iconic fare such as Dwarves and Elves, Clerics and Rangers – alongside a smattering of more innovative offerings such as Eladrin and Dragonborn. D&D has undergone a considerable facelift from the game we all love, and it's just a beautiful as ever.

D&D for a WoW generation...

It's fun. It just really feels overpowered at times. I like 3.5 better... Just sayin'
