The Adventure Zone: The Eleventh Hour (The Adventure Zone, 5)
The fifth installment in the #1 New York Times bestselling Adventure Zone graphic novel series, a meta-fictional D&D adventure story based on the smash hit podcast.
The Bureau of Balance has located yet another Grand Relic, and this time it's...time? A small mining town called Refuge has been locked away behind an arcane bubble, and somewhere inside it the Temporal Chalice is causing unknown mayhem. Taako, Magnus, and Merle are launched into their investigation, but they've barely had a chance to get their feet under them before the situation literally falls apart. When the town clocktower strikes noon, Refuge and its citizens are destroyed in a sudden chaos of flame and ruin, and our heroes' relic hunting― along with their lives―comes to an abrupt end.
But woah, what's this? It's 11AM, they're alive again, and Refuge definitely hasn't just been exploded? Looks like a classic time loop, friends. This town is trapped in its final hour, and so are the three of them. And in order to escape, they'll not only have to solve the mystery of what happened to the Chalice, they'll also also have to resist what it offers: the chance to rewrite the worst days of their own pasts.
Based on the blockbuster podcast where the McElroy brothers and their dad play a tabletop RPG, and illustrated by cartooning powerhouse Carey Pietsch, The Adventure Zone: The Eleventh Hour is a thrilling new chapter in this #1 New York Times bestselling series.

The art and story is great as usual but the packaging didnt protect the outer cover and so was ripped up and scratched.

Any fan of The Adventure Zone will be delighted with this. Make sure you check the backgrounds of the pictures - the artist sometimes slips in the things that had to be cut for telling a concise story into the backgrounds.

Some of my favorite TAZ characters finally make an appearance in this latest entry! There are so many wonderful details, I couldn't imagine a better adaptation of a beloved audio story.

I couldn't put it down. I got emotional. If a great interpretation of the podcast material and I love it so much. Now I just want to go back and listen again! Also, the drawings are just so masterful and you can tell the care put into them with the modeling and the detail work. This is my favorite arc and the book elevates it.

Like the first 4 books, this new entry into the TAZ Graphic Novel saga is outstanding. The art is beautiful: a great mix of cartoony and beautiful. The artist's style has grown and improved over the last 4 books, and this one is the best looking so far. The writing is crisp and does a great job translating the podcast into a coherent, literary format. Admittedly, the graphic novel format loses a lot of the banter and jokes that made the podcast great, but this is more than made up for in sight gags and other easter eggs hidden throughout. Overall, I'm blown away by how good this series is, and I think The Eleventh Hour the best so far.
