Pack your Bag of Holding and get ready for an expansive, official tour through the myriad settings of the D&D multiverse.

From the familiar fantasy lands of the Forgotten Realms and Dragonlance to the broodingly gothic planes of Ravenloft and star-hopping voyages of Spelljammer, Dungeons & Dragons Encyclopedia uncovers every facet of the world's most popular tabletop role-playing game.

Every page is packed full of information on D&D's myriad settings, including the monsters that roam the realms and menace adventurers, legendary locations full of eventful histories, the heroes and villains that protect and plague the different dimensions, and the iconic items that enable the machinations of players, NPCs, and big-bads.

For the first time ever in an official title, Wizards of the Coast has brought together more than half a dozen of its legendary settings - stretching all the way back to Greyhawk - to showcase the elements that make them unique, and make Dungeons & Dragons the most diverse, exciting, and unpredictable game in the world.
