Reviews
Fans of the Adventure Zone series will be eager to venture in, and even if readers are not gamers themselves, there’s plenty worth following in the trials and tribulations of this group of friends.
"The Last Session is a story that places equal emphasis on the in-game tale and the “real world” story, creating a narrative that that is utterly irresistible."
"Readers looking for a story about how friendships are meant to grow & evolve, regardless of how firmly fixed a given circle might be, may find a lot to love here."
