Side Quest Books & Games

Welcome to the Side Quest!

We’re a woman-owned, fantasy-inspired shop for magical books, indie role-playing games, and nerdy miscellany — all centering underrepresented creators.

We believe that stories are magic, and that the best ones comes from where you least expect it.

Looking to pick up the latest romantasy sensation, add dice to your hoard, or learn a new GM-less RPG in a safe and inclusive environment? We’ll help you find your next adventure!
