Publisher Description
Start your engines, friends, as we hit the road again with Taako, Magnus and Merle, the beloved agents of chaos from the #1 New York Times bestselling graphic novels. Fans of Critical Role and Dimension 20 will love this installment in The Adventure Zone saga, which adapts the trailblazing D&D podcast into a blockbuster series!
Our boys have gone full-time at the Bureau of Balance, and their next assignment is a real thorny one: apprehending The Raven, a master thief who’s tapped into the power of a Grand Relic to ransack the city of Goldcliff. Local life-saver Lieutenant Hurley pulls them out of the woods, only to throw them headlong into the world of battle wagon racing, Goldcliff’s favorite high-stakes low-legality sport and The Raven’s chosen battlefield. Will the boys and Hurley be able to reclaim the Relic and pull The Raven back from the brink, or will they get lost in the weeds?
The Adventure Zone: Petals to the Metal has it all: blossoming new friendships, pining for outlaw lovers, and a rollicking race you can root for!

Customer Reviews
Best one yet
If Petals was the arc where the podcast clicked for you this book will be even more special. If you’re a reader only, hold on to your mongoose mask. Emotion, humor and some of the best art yet by Pietsch. I couldn’t stop reading.
This book is exactly what I needed right now
I’ve been going through a bit of a rough time, like I’m sure many others have, and it’s sincerely been incredibly helpful to have the release of this book to look forward to. Now that it’s here, it’s a fantastic balm on my soul. I can’t thank Carey and the McElroys enough for this.
Petals to the metal and my heart
The third installment of the Graphic novels for The Adventure Zone- Balance, seems to be a great fit among the others.
Hurley tugged at my heartstrings, just like she did in the podcast. There’s minor changes here and there, but nothing too out of left field.
The changes make since and we even get bonus content.
Just like with the Podcast, Petals to the metal was great! Not my favorite, but nether was it in podcast. Everything so far seems to be lining up, I would argue I like the Graphic novel more then the Podcast for this adventure, ironically not something I’ve been able to say about the others.
Please give it a read!
