Great news, Critical Role art lovers—we’re reprinting the Vox Machina art book The Chronicles of Exandria Vol I: The Tale of Vox Machina! This volume collects over 250 pages of art from Critters around the world, curated and art directed by Lauryn Ipsum as well as Critical Role’s Liam O’Brien and Taliesin Jaffe. 

With in-world commentary by the Cobalt Soul archivists of Exandria, this book devotes its first chapters of gorgeous illustrations to each member of Vox Machina. Later chapters take you on a whirlwind tour of the first half of the campaign, bringing the story’s arcs to vivid life through its artwork. The Chronicles of Exandria Vol I: The Tale of Vox Machina will serve as a treasured companion to all who come to love these characters and their adventures.

Later this year, we’re also reprinting The Chronicles of Exandria Vol II: The Legend of Vox Machina, the final art book in the Vox Machina series!
