This week, Hamilton convinces Fiona to read 'Expedition to the Barrier Peaks' adventure module from the latest D&D adventure anthology, 'Quests from the Infinite Staircase'. This anthology weaves a cosmic thread through six classic Dungeons & Dragons adventures, updated for the game’s fifth edition.
Bio for the original 'Expedition to the Barrier Peaks' adventure:
'Published in 1980, Expedition to the Barrier Peaks was designed by Gary Gygax to introduce D&D players to the science fantasy genre. The chaotic adventure features a crashed spaceship rife with malfunctioning robots, futuristic gadgetry, and weird monsters— including the first appearance of the froghemoth, an amphibious menace immortalized by Erol Otus in the illustration booklet that accompanied the adventure.'
