Become the ultimate Game Master and deliver tabletop role-playing games with confidence!
For librarians, teachers, school staff and parents who want to run a tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) but don’t know where to begin, this practical guide includes five tabletop role-playing adventures written so that a first-time Game Master can jump straight in and start playing. Alongside the adventures the book includes:
- a comprehensive TTRPG glossary
- examples of safety tools to allow players to stay safe
- practical tips for helping new players at the TTRPG table
- practical tips for first-time Game Masters and new players
- ideas on how to establish role-playing sessions and festivals in your school
- lists of potions, magic items and non-player characters, including their motivations and occupations.
A companion to Lucas Maxwell’s bestselling Let’s Roll, this book is a must-read for librarians and teachers looking to deliver exciting and creative games and quests. Now roll the dice and have fun!

This book is the kind of high-level wizard's tome every aspiring Game Master should have. Lucas's experience and empathy are second-to-none, and I will be recommending this book to every educator I know, because between this and his first, there's really no better place to start adventuring.
