About this listen

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Explore the past of Critical Role’s daring half-elf twins, Vex’ahlia and Vax’ildan, in this original prequel novel to their adventures with Vox Machina.

Vex and Vax have always been outsiders. A harsh childhood in the elite elven city of Syngorn quickly taught them not to rely on others. Now, freed from the expectations of their exacting father and the scornful eyes of Syngorn’s elves, the cunning hunter and the conning thief have made their own way in the world of Exandria.

The twins have traveled far and experienced great hardship. But with the help of Vex’s quick wit and Vax’s quicker dagger, they’ve always kept ahead of trouble. Now, unknown perils await them in the bustling city of Westruun, where the twins become entangled in a web spun by the thieves’ guild known to many as the Clasp. Trapped by a hasty deal, Vex and Vax (along with Vex’s faithful bear companion, Trinket) set out into the wilds to fulfill their debt to the infamous crime syndicate.

As the situation grows more complicated than they ever could have imagined, for the first time Vex and Vax find themselves on opposite sides of a conflict that threatens the home they have carried with each other for years.

Written by #1 New York Times bestselling author Marieke Nijkamp, Critical Role: Vox Machina—Kith & Kin follows a brand-new adventure that delves into the twins’ unexplored history, and returns to some of the iconic moments that forged Vox Machina’s most unbreakable bond.

Excellent read!

This was the first book to introduce me to Audible and I was very impressed. I found myself reaching to listen whenever I had a spare few minutes. The story itself was entertaining and captivating, as a lover of Critical Role it was very enjoyable!

Stunning, captivating, touching.

The remarkable voice actors of Critical Role crew has done it again, this time with the addition of the esteemed Robbie Daymond and the detailed wordsmith that is Marieke Nijkamp. If you are looking for a story that has all the emotional baggage of a pair of jaded but passionate twins, and a set of voices that is easy on the ears, this audiobook is for you. Entwining humour amongst the story, Marieke brought to fruition, what would appear to be, one of the most important events to shape their lives since the destruction of their childhood home. Laura and Liam gave a unique personality and life only feasible from someone who has truly lived the character from the start. Robbie gave all the characters, side or main, a reason to stand on their own. Even if you are not familiar with the characters of Vax and Vex, you will most likely enjoy the simple banter that only people who have lived together their entire lives can only have with each other, their interaction with the people around them, and the situation they find themselves in after something went wrong.

Great listen

Long time fan of Critical Role, so happy to be diving into the novels now, to love even more time in the worlds of these characters we love so much. Robbie was a fantastic narrator and having Laura and Liam in their roles as the twins was fantastic. 10/10 will listen again.

I loved it

I was weeping at some points for young Vex. This was a wonderful way to learn about the twins, and I fell in love with the characters all over again.

Holy Sh*t, Robbie Daymon!!?

Love Critical Role, the Vex and Vax solo story was great. But Holy Crap was Robbie Daymon amazing! If you enjoy him in Campaign 3, this is worth listening to for his performance alone!

Robbie!!

Loved Robbie as the narrator, way to freaking go man you killed it. Loved the story for both Vex and Vax, loved seeing them on the streams and this took me back. Thank you Marieke Nijkamp for a wonderful story! I hope there's more to come!

Expanded universe

It was amazing to hear about the origins of such beloved characters. It allows fans to feel a little more immersed in the world of Critical role, but also learn more about the characters they love. Great story!
