A good tale gets told in ‘Table Titans Club’

I always enjoying reading graphic novels. No two are alike and each one has taken me on a thrilling adventure. When I heard about Table Titans Club I hoped it would be a fun read. I was able to get a digital copy of this graphic novel and here is my thoughts on it.

You can read the plot for Table Titans Club here:

Valeria Winters has an easier time finding trouble than making friends. A fantasy-obsessed nerd with the legendary confidence—and temper—of a Valkyrie, Val promises her mom that things will be different at her new school. “No more fighting!”

As if by fate, she meets the Table Titans right away—Alan, Andrew, and Darius, who run the school’s tabletop gaming club. Finally, Val has found her own adventuring party! And even better . . . a place where she belongs.

So when the future of the club is threatened, Val makes it her personal quest to save the Table Titans. She’ll have to face the fire-breathing wrestling coach and popular girl Kate, who seems out for revenge. Revenge for what? Val has no clue.

As the quest grows more and more complicated, Val wishes she was like her peaceful druid Lulani from the Table Titans’ campaign, whose calm voice always prevails. If she loses her cool in real life, Val might lose more than the Table Titans club. She’ll have to roll a natural 20 in charisma to keep her new friends together.

I had a tough time putting this graphic novel down. We see a girl start a new school, and have a rough first day. Luckily, they get asked to join a Dungeons and Dragons club, which changes their life in more ways than one. When the members find out the future of the club is threatened, they work together to find some way to save it. As this graphic novel comes to a close, life for Val will never be the same.

Table Titans Club is out now. You can order this graphic novel on Amazon, at Banes and Noble and on Bookshop.
