    The Book Of Dragons

    Here's our back cover text for TBoD:

    THE MIGHTIEST MONSTERS

    Monsters are a staple of most Fantasy campaigns — but the same old trolls, demons, and zombies aren’t enough for some games. Sometimes the mightiest heroes need the largest, most powerful monsters to challenge them. The Book Of Dragons presents about mega-monsters for your Fantasy Hero games, including:

    —Dragons: The fire-breathing archetypical monster of legend and myth is thoroughly reviewed, with character sheets for dozens of varieties of dragons, tips on how to use dragons in your campaign, and more.

    —Other Monstrosities: Dragons aren’t the only gigantic, fearsome monsters out there! The Book Of Dragons includes nearly a dozen additional monsters that you can use as-is, or take as inspiration for designing your own monsters.

    So get ready for the toughest monsters your heroes have ever faced in The Book Of Dragons!

    Re: The Book Of Dragons

    Before anyone asks:

    Basic Dragons: 7 full write-ups with a section on Variants: Brute, Chromatics, Metallics, Regionals.

    Then almost 50 more Dragons of all kinds and natures and designs . . .

    My fantasy players will have two new words to fear: Bear Dragon.

    See that, that right there is awesome with awesomesauce on it.

    There's a bunch of other monsters in it too... like The Living Castle. Why put monsters in a castle, when you can just have the whole building eat the party.

    And Fighting Monsters (climbing modifiers for giant monsters!)

    Anyways, I gotta go edit my review of Urban Fantasy.

    No, I did not, but I definitely appreciated your sending it. I decided to stay mostly generic (though I did write up a few big-name bad-ass monsters like Jormungandr and Typhon).
