General
The next D&D book goes to Candle Keep and a series of short adventures.

Remember Candlekeep? It was the fortress of the monastery library where the first "Baldur's Gate" tutorial took place, where you would run errands, treat a sick cow, and learn how to fight before heading to the Forgotten Realm. When you return, you'll be allowed to donate a rare book and return inside, despite having grown up there. The monks are still obsessed with books, as the next Dungeons & Dragons supplement, "The Mystery of Candlekeep," shows.

It is a collection of 17 short, self-contained adventures for characters of levels 1-16, all beginning with books found at Candlekeep and focusing on the "mystery" theme. In addition to the adventures, the collection includes a poster map of Candlekeep and the writings of its inhabitants.

I did a number of D&Ds over the last year on the Internet, mostly short adventures that fit the format of weekly Zoom calls and Discord hangouts; the pre-written scenarios in DM's Guild and the D&D Essentials Kit were sufficient, and I'm hoping to do a few more in the future. The Candlekeep Mystery will be released on March 16.

It is an introduction to virtual tabletop software to help you play D&D on your PC.
