The world teeters on the brink of destruction as Taako, Magnus, and Merle near the end of their perilous quest to collect the seven Grand Relics, dangerous magical artifacts that threaten existence itself. Their next challenge is retrieving the Animus Bell, a task that leads them to Wonderland—a nightmarish carnival where joy and torment walk hand in hand. The Director informs them that the Bell lies hidden at the heart of this sinister place, and obtaining it demands a dire sacrifice. With each step they take, the stakes rise exponentially, and every choice brings about its own unique horrors.

As the trio ventures deeper into the twisted labyrinth that is Wonderland, they encounter monstrous foes, face labyrinthine puzzles, and struggle with the personal costs of their decisions. Each victory is bittersweet, coming at an increasingly higher price they must pay. The friends must employ all their wit, courage, and loyalty to survive this hellish gauntlet.

Yet, even if they manage to secure the Animus Bell, the question looms: will the worst truly be over? They hope to return to their Moonbase, hand over the Bell to The Director, and resume their mission for the final relic. After all, they are so close to the end, having survived countless trials and tribulations. But as seasoned adventurers know, certainty is an illusion and the past has shown that surprises lurk behind every corner.

The Adventure Zone: The Suffering Game continues the epic saga full of heart, humour, and high-stakes action. Written by Griffin McElroy, Clint McElroy, Justin McElroy, and Travis McElroy, this gripping instalment dives into the intricate and often tormenting world of the Adventure Zone. The well-loved characters face their most formidable challenge yet in a tale that is as thrilling as it is deeply moving. Immerse yourself in a story that blends adventure, camaraderie, and the relentless pursuit of what it means to be a hero.

A fantastic read for fans of the podcast

For Adventure Zone fans, picking up this book is a no brainer, it’s a fun and wonderfully illustrated imagining of the much-acclaimed podcast’s Suffering Games arc.

Though this can be read in isolation as it has a ‘debrief’ spread explaining what’s happened so far in the series, I would recommend reading the previous entries (note this is Book 6).

Shipping from Book Hero came at lightning speed (ordered 1:30pm and was here by 10am the next day!). My order was well packaged and the books are in great condition. I can’t recommend them enough.

About the Author

Meet the McElroys! Clint was born first, which recent studies have shown is the best procedure for fathers and sons; then came Justin, Travis, and, last but not least, Griffin. This hilarious family gained fame in the world of podcasts with My Brother, My Brother and Me (which spawned a popular TV show), Sawbones, Shmanners, Rose Buddies, and a farcical romp called The Adventure Zone. Carey Pietsch is a cartoonist based in Brooklyn, New York. Her work includes drawing for Lumberjanes and the webcomic Mages of Mystralia. Carey also makes Keepsakes and other original comics about magic and empathy. Along with brightening her workdays, The Adventure Zone got her to join a D&D campaign. careydraws.tumblr.com
