There’s never been a better time to try D&D or fill the gaps in your collection, particularly now that the Prime Day Dungeons and Dragons deals are here. In fact, many books have had their prices slashed in half (opens in new tab) (including the most recent releases). There’s also a promotion where buying two books gets you a third one for 50% less (opens in new tab) than normal. Considering the fact that most books are half-price already, that’s really not a bad offer.

While it’s not surprising to see so many Prime Day Dungeons and Dragons deals, we are taken aback by the scale of the savings on offer. Amazon’s knocked loads off most D&D rulebooks and campaigns, letting you get into the tabletop RPG for the first time or expand your collection at a vastly discounted rate. When taken with the best Prime Day board game deals, it’s a good time for us and a bad time for our wallets.
Because the Prime Day Dungeons and Dragons deals are coming to a close (the sales event only runs from June 21 – 22), it’d be a good idea to grab anything you’ve had your eye on sooner rather than later – you don’t want to miss out, particularly when so many books have such massive discounts.
