Description
Dungeons & Dragons: Tales From the Yawning Portal is a sourcebook featuring 7 of the most successful dungeons for this legendary roleplaying game.
The book is in English, comes in hardcover, and has 248 pages.
When the shadows grow long in Waterdeep and the fireplace in the taproom of the Yawning Portal dims to a deep crimson glow, adventurers from across the Forgotten Realms, and even from other worlds, spin tales and spread rumors of dark dungeons and lost treasures. Some of the yarns overheard by Durnan, the barkeep of the Yawning Portal, are inspired by places and events in far-flung lands from across the D&D multiverse, and these tales have been collected into a single volume.
Within this tome are seven of the most compelling dungeons from the 40+ year history of Dungeons & Dragons. Some are classics that have hosted an untold number of adventurers, while others are some of the most popular adventures ever printed.
The seeds of these stories now rest in your hands. D&D's most storied dungeons are now part of your modern repertoire of adventures. Enjoy, and remember to keep a few spare character sheets handy.

Like most D&D publications from WotC, this book is technically very well crafted. As for the content, it's a collection of iconic old campaigns adapted for 5e. And that's where the sticking point is for me personally. Yes, I can drop these dungeons and adventures into my campaign, but I can't imagine the players wouldn't realize it's old content after just a few moments of play. It's hard to describe, but after reading it, the difference between modern and original D&D is just noticeable, and I prefer the more modern style.
Jako většina DnD publikací od WotC, je i tato kniha technicky velmi dobře zpracovaná. Co se obsahu týče, jedná se o sbírku starých ikonických kampaní adaptovaných pro 5e. A zde pro mě osobně leží kámen úrazu. Ano, tyto dungeony a dobrodružství mohu vložit do své kampaně, ale nedokážu si představit, že by po pár momentech hraní hráči nepřišli na to, že se jedná o starý obsah. Je to těžko popsatelná věc, ale po přečtení je ten rozdíl mezi moderním a původním DnD prostě znát a moje preference je k modernějšímu.
Dungeons & Dragons: Tales From the Yawning Portal is an anthology of the most popular and successful adventures in history, updated for the fifth edition rules.
You'll find adventures suitable for characters from level one all the way to level eleven. Since the book consists of multiple adventures, they are significantly shorter (though it depends on the players themselves), which is a definite advantage for new players and DMs who need less time to prepare.
The book is richly illustrated and offers plenty for experienced players to enjoy as well.
Dungeons & Dragons: Tales From the Yawning Portal je antologií historicky nejvíce populárních a úspěšných dobrodružství, která byla upravena, aby vyhovovala pravidlům páté edice.
Najdeme zde tak dobrodružství vhodná pro postavy jak na první, tak i na jedenácté úrovni. A to, že knihu tvoří více dobrodružství také znamená, že jsou notně (i když záleží na samotných hráčích) kratší, což je jistě výhoda pro začínající hráče a DM, kteří tak potřebují méně času na prostudování.
Kniha je bohatě ilustrovaná a na své si zde přijdou i zkušení hráči.
