Dungeons & Dragons How Not to Get Eaten by Owlbears is a travel guide for D&D's Forgotten Realms, filled with advice and tips on where to go, what to see, and ways to avoid a horrible death.

The Forgotten Realms are dangerous. Well, actually that's an understatement. The Forgotten Realms are a death trap...

But they're also very exciting, packed with amazing sights, and fun to explore. And that's where this book comes in.

An in-world guide written from the point of view of a newly invented character from D&D's lore, this book will answer your burning questions via chapters covering deadly fauna, magical mishaps, urban perils, merciless monsters, and much more. Whether you want to know which is the best tavern in Baldur's Gate or have a pressing need for tips on how to escape an ogre's lair, with this handy, humorous guide at your fingertips, your adventures will end in fame and fortune, rather than something else's stomach.
