Quests from the Infinite Staircase is an adventure anthology for fifth edition, published in July 2024. It updates and adapts six well-known adventurers from earlier editions: The Lost City, When a Star Falls, Beyond the Crystal Cave, Pharaoh, The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth, and Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, suiting player-characters of levels 1 to 13. These use the Infinite Staircase as a linking story.
Cover blurb
The back cover description—
"Step through a Door to Adventure
The Infinite Staircase spirals in a dreamlike expanse, with doors leading to fantastic realms. It's home to the noble genie Nafas, who hears wishes made throughout the multiverse and recruits heroes to fulfill them. These pleas summon adventurers to lost caverns suffused with planar energy, fairytale gardens in the Feywild, futuristic spaceships, and other wondrous locales.
This anthology weaves together six classic Dungeons & Dragons® adventures while updating them for the game's fifth edition. You can run these quests individually or as a campaign that takes characters from level 1 to level 13."

Plot summary
"A cosmic thread pervades these tales, whose stories involve falling stars, archmages of multiversal renown, and the remnants of futuristic societies.
This book provides a means of traveling between these and other adventures: the Infinite Staircase. Unlike spells such as Plane Shift, the staircase can be accessed by characters of any class or level. It merely requires happening on the right door.
The adventures in Quests from the Infinite Staircase can be worked into ongoing campaigns. Additionally, these adventures complement those in other D&D anthologies [...] —you can use the staircase to ferry the characters between the worlds in which those quests take place."[2]
