I love the second Tome of Horrors book. Incredible. Go buy it.
Just ignore Mr. Cook's reference to ammunition.
The blurb says, "If a role playing game is a gun, then a monster book is the ammunition. If that's the case, then Tome of Horrors is a case of hollow point, explosive shells!"
Never mind the fact that the word "case" appears in the same sentence twice. There is no such thing as explosive hollowpoints. There are indeed explosive bullets (though very rare on the market, ever since Regan was shot with one), and there are indeed hollowpoints. But since the points are hollow (being basically a lead shell that breaks apart on impact), there is nowhere to put the explosive!
Anyway, the book is a darling, and everyone should own a copy!
