This amazing book is a monster compendium, a field guide, an ecology and biology book and an art book all rolled into one versatile supplement. Moreover, it's system agnostic, so a wide range of people can enjoy it. It even works as a brilliant coffee table book, especially for non-gamers, as it is a great jumping-off point into the world of Tabletop Gaming.
The unique and interesting critters presented in this book are a great addition to any DM's toolbox of fluff and inspiration.
A fascinating book to read, it also has great pictures and wonderful explanations of the lore around fantasy monsters. The writing is witty, humorous and charming and goes well with the colorful and distinctive art. Also, it feels great to see a mostly female team producing such quality content - more women in gaming is always good to see.
Overall, this is an innovative book with fun art and good writing. Definitely buy for me!
