Need a Monster Book Suggestion

[Katerek]

Monsternomicon
Liber Beastarius
Tome of Horrors

I have EVERY monster book that has been published in the last three years. Those three are the only non-WoTC products that I repeatedly turn to.

CC and CCII are okay as well, and I have no complaints, i just don't use them as much.

Also, lest I forget, the Monsters of Norrath for the Everquest game is something I have turned to on many occasions. The Amygdalin Knights were perfect when my Epic PC's took on a Mind Flayer city.

Edit: Not sure why this posted twice...sorry

I have both Liber and Monsternomicon. I must say while both are well done, they don't see NEARLY as much use as Tome or my other monster books.

Here is one I thought obvious...though not a book- Wotc site and our own Creatures section. I have many neat ideas found in both. All are non-world specific. Just a thought

As for a book. Book of Horrors and the Monstericon were good.

Second the Monsternomicon. Muchness of gothic fairy tale stuff, a particular weakness of mine (much pulp, also). I haven't got any of the other books people are speaking of, so I can't compare. Only about 10 of the monsters (out of something like 75) are really steampunk, and things like the Deathjack and gremlins don't really count. A couple of monsters like the Excruciator have steampunk-y illustrations, but that's not got anything to do with the actual monster. Oh yeah, it's also got 3 prestige classes in the back and a pile of "quickplates," basically just templates meant to be applied on the fly.
