A review by sherrios
Critical Role: Vox Machina Origins Library Edition: Series I & II Collection by Matthew Colville, Matthew Mercer, Jody Houser, Olivia Samson, Chris Northrop

4.0

As someone who has only watched the animated series (and had her wife explain - in detail - campaign one), I was excited to see what ultimately brought the crew all together. And that's what this does: it shows the start of the group that will become known as Vox Machina.

As someone who much prefers a visual sort of storytelling, this was immensely easier for me to read and follow than listening to an actual play. And, amazingly, the writers got the personality of each charater down perfectly. As always, Trinket is the best boy, and I enjoyed seeing Vex slowly start to open up and widen her circle of trust when speaking with Keyleth.

Solid read, perfect for fans of the series.
