I never understood why my DM always seemed to take a nap after our sessions until I started DMing my own campaign. 😆 But that's so much fun you get to DM for your son!

I think book 2 is the weakest, but after that they're all really stellar. The Thief Who Wasn't There might be my favorite.

This one particular used bookstore seems to always turn up some gems, but it's far enough away I only go a few times a year! (Probably for the better. 😆)
