This is, without a doubt, the most useful book I've ever bought (with the exception of books from Core sets).

The last campaign I ran was one of the most sucessful I've ever pulled off. And this book gave me not only the main villains of the story (carnivorous plants that constantly reproduce, drain the life from the area around them, and skewer anyone who comes near them). But also the main roleplaying reward of the game: special powers that can be obtained nowhere wlse.

Long story short: I let the players unlock random powers that they then rolled for on the randomised tables at the back of the book. They loved it, and the unpredictability added a lot to the game.

But it's not just that. I've also used this book to generate literally dozens of new enemies, allies, and random species for my players to encounter.

People in these reviews seem to be complaining about what the book isn't, and that's unfair. I have never found another book that is as easy to use, has such huge variety, and that provide so much fodder for new ideas, regardless of your fantasy roleplaying system.

If you're looking for a book that helps you make monsters or grant special powers then as far as I know you literally cannot do any better than this book.

It's great.
