Dungeons & Dragons launched the great tradition of roleplaying games in 1974 with an unprecedented mix of adventure and strategy, dice-rolling, and storytelling. Wizards of the Coast continues to honour that tradition, bringing to market a diverse range of D&D game and entertainment experiences and influencing numerous writers, directors, and game designers by tapping into an innate human need to gather with friends and tell an exciting story together. Andrew Wheeler is an award-winning genre fiction writer whose works include the multi-volume Dungeons & Dragons Young Adventurers' Guides series and the comics series Cat Fight, Sins of the Black Flamingo, Love and War, and the upcoming Hey Mary. He's also written a book about the wonders of British food and a column about sauce for Serious Eats. Andrew was born in the South of England and now lives in Toronto with his well-stocked home bar and too many Barbra Streisand LPs.
“Many D&D adventures begin in a bar, and you can add some flavor to the setting with Puncheons & Flagons.”—Polygon “Whether you’re looking for a boozy pick-me-up, a virgin drink with a complex flavor, or just a snack, the latest work from Andrew Wheeler, Puncheons & Flagons, is a great companion for your game night.”—GeekDad “This book is all around beautiful! The photos are gorgeous, the recipes are well written and easy to follow, plus the lore behind each item puts me directly into the D&D universe.”—Chef Mike Haracz, host of Heroes’ Feast and professional R&D chef “Puncheons and Flagons takes the art of creating delectable concoctions and mouthwatering libations to the next level. I lean more towards nonalcoholic bevvies, so the serenity of the Hissing Stones in the last chapter called my name. As a tea-aholic, Chessentan Tea and Mourning Cup are the perfect way to start my day with a refreshing touch. And paired with Tearoom Cookies? Chef’s kiss!”—Sujata Day, filmmaker at Atajus Productions “Each recipe is accompanied by beautiful food and beverage photography and fun game lore, immersing you in the D&D universe while you’re conjuring up some pre-game spirits.”—Boing Boing “Designed to add flare and ambiance to game night.”—CBR
