Order of the Stick: Dim Sum cover by Rich Burlew
A loving tribute to one of the game’s classic campaign settings, Dim Sun is an original parody story that sees our favorite band of heroes, the Order of the Stick, reimagined for this grim setting that is somehow both incredibly dark and surprisingly sunny. Watch as they struggle to work together and defeat the evil sorcerer-king Xy-Konn once and for all in this all-new fantasy-comedy-adventure story with 24 full color pages of brand-new jokes and obscure references.

This is a digital edition PDF. This title is not available in print.

Kickstarter Backers: If you were a backer of the OOTS Kickstarter, this story was released to you for free, and you can access through the most recent update to the Kickstarter page.
