Critical Role: The Mighty Nein--Stories Untold

About the Book

See Critical Role’s Mighty Nein through the eyes of nine of their friends and foes in this new anthology, with a foreword by Taliesin Jaffe.

In these nine stories, the legend of the mighty adventuring party grows with tales from some of the most memorable characters who fought with—and against—the Mighty Nein!

Within its pages:
Essek Thelyss grapples with the choices of his past and the potential of his future, as told by Dani Carr.
Isharnai deals with the emotional aftermath of a fate-altering cupcake, as told by Kiri Callaghan.
Pumat Sol returns to his shop after the fight with Obann and the Mighty Nein, only to find that his adventure is not quite done, as told by Mike Chen.
• Plus six more hilarious, heartbreaking, and heroic tales featuring Sprinkle, Avantika, Dairon, and more!

With their hope, unbreakable bonds, and larger-than-life commitment to heroism in a dark world, Critical Role’s Mighty Nein touched hearts everywhere they went—both those of their fans and their fellow denizens of Exandria. This collection spotlights nine characters whose lives were changed by the Mighty Nein but whose stories have not yet been told.
