[QUOTE="Tewligan, post: 260345, member: 2191"] Well, I mentioned elsewhere that I got the book, but I'll say it here too, since this seems to be the thread for it. I like it a lot. The monsters are solidly usable, and few if any of them suffer from "Fiend Folio-itis", where a creature is so odd or goofy that you have no idea what to do with it. The art is consistently at least as good or better than that in most other third-party books. I like how some of the monsters have connections to each other - it makes the book seem more coherent to me, rather than just a hodgepodge of monsters all thrown together between the covers. The ECL provided for a lot of the creatures is nice, as are the numerous adventure hooks ideas. This is definitely a book I'll be using. Oh, and as for the foreword - hardly the Queen's English, but hey, I'm not buying my game books for the forewords. Really, my only complaint (and it's a minor one) is intentionally making the CR's lower to "crank up the carnage." Of course, that's pretty easily fixed, so no big deal. Overall, very nice work. Any word on a volume 2 in the near future? [/QUOTE]
