The second Creature Feature Quarterly provides another solid set of thoroughly detailed monsters. However, this is probably a little weaker than the first set, with a bit less variety; there are also a few more design hiccups this time (such as the bog horror not sounding like a neutral evil creature, and other monsters being mislabeled as humanoids when they're not). The set also feels somewhat more edgy overall than the first set, so they may not be to everyone's tastes. Still, there are some interesting choices, such as the axiom invoker, dreg, fen fiend, and juggernaut. As with the first volume, the price tag still seems slightly too high for 26 pages of content, but this is likely worth it on sale or in a bundle.
