Officially become an XDM and impress dates. (Do-it-yourself secret initiation rites included.)
Master the secrets of designing adventures that tell stories.
Create magic illusions that can even make your players disappear!

Hijack the game as a player, and how to deal with a player revolution as an XDM.
Plus loads more!
If I could go back in time and rewrite Dragonlance, it would be this book...only with more dragons in it. --Tracy Hickman
I can say without any shame or bias, that this is one of the best books ever written and should be in every hotel room next to the bible. --Curtis Hickman
Possessed by the spirits of Da Vinci, Van Gogh, and Jack Fred, I illustrated a book that you should buy two of...one to read and one to hang on your wall.--Howard Tayler

Moments into the introduction [of XDM X-Treme Dungeon Mastery] I found myself chuckling, several minutes later I was laughing out loud, and before I knew it I had spent most of my work day shirking my duties while reading the book from start to finish ... Although the book is written in a very humorous, tongue-in-check manner don t make the mistake of assuming that it isn t a serious gaming supplement. The Hickman s goal of getting gamers to remember to enjoy the game and not get so caught up in mechanics really comes through. They are gamers after my own heart. The book is loaded with excellent advice on how to put the fun back into your game. ----John Lewis Roleplayingpro.com
I continually found myself chuckling at the awesome illustrations by Howard Tayler. I d pass the book to one of my friends, he d start laughing. As he d pass the book back to me, my other friends would say, Hey, hey. Pass that over, I want to see too. It got to the point that when I found a funny illustration, I just passed it around because I knew everyone wanted to see it. ... The initial appearance and way it is written may make you think, at first glance, that it is a book primarily written for humor. I found myself laughing at the illustrations and the way the book was written, but I also constantly found myself thinking, Wow, that s a really good idea. ----Samuel Van Der Wall Roleplayingpro.com
