Worst monster book:
3e MM - bad layout, art doesn't match monster description, and very close to false advertiseing on the number of monsters, I also greatly dislike some of the pictures.
Also, didn't include pretemplate applied creatures for summoning spells.
Best book:
1e FF: layout is good, lots of cool monsters. Sure you've got the much maligned flumph but there are so many other great ones. Plus, it definantly has the best cover of any monster book.
