Has a grand total of 222 pages.
The table of contents is kind of cool, as it also doubles as a sort of index.
Monsters are tabulated according to Challenge Rating, ECL, Type and Subtype.
Seven new feats.
One new spell.
Eleven templates, most of which appear to be different versions of the "god-blooded" template, ie Vecna-Blooded, Orcus-Blooded, etc.
A list of creatures in the book that can be summoned, created or crafted by characters. The corresponding monster entry has a section that details specifics.
A list of creatures that can function as mounts. The corresponding monster entry has a section that details how said mount can be obtained.

Five demons (Adaru, Carnage Demon, Draudnu, Gadacro, Solamith)
Three devils (Gulthir, Remmanon, Stitched Devil)
No new dragons, though two dragons are statted out with the new dragon-only template.
Two new golems, the force golem and the magmacore golem.
Several creatures get the "let's add class levels" treatment; Hobgoblins, Kuo-toa and Vampires.
The mind-flayer on the cover comes about because, I assume, fully 22 pages of the book are devoted to talking about the "Mind Flayers of Thoon." Thoon being some sort of far-realms associated entity that's caused changes to your standard mind-flayer that makes them search for something called "quintessence."
There is one epic level creature. It's called the Master of the Hunt, is CR 22 and is a kind of fey.
