An illustrated encyclopedia of the best monsters from around the world, for fantasy fans and Dungeons and Dragons enthusiasts. Whether they're beasts, spirits, demons, or even aliens, most fantasy worlds are filled with monsters. Some are harmless--many more are deadly. Luckily for the discerning adventurer, this book is here to help distinguish between the two. Animators Blanca Martinez de Riuerro and Joe Sparrow have compiled three volumes of their popular series into one deluxe edition. Each creature comes with a full-color illustration, a set of simplified statistics, a description, and a history section indicating its folkloric history and the scientific phenomena that may have influenced its creation. With creatures like the Archdevil, Dryad, Fire Bat, Gold Dragon, Smoke Devil, Bomb Plant, Ettin, and Spirit Fox, any tabletop player will find the perfect creature for their next campaign.
