| Summary: | "This introductory guide to the worlds of the leading fantasy role-playing game franchise provides an immersive illustrated primer to the beasts and creatures of D&D. In this illustrated guide for new players, you're transported to the mystical and magical worlds of Dungeons & Dragons and given a one-of-a-kind course on the monsters for which the game (and all of its iterations) is known. Featuring direct, pithy insights on the monsters and how players interact with them, alongside original creature illustrations and archival images, the book shines a spotlight on the beasts that go bump in the night and cause trouble for D&D adventurers, with features ranging from monsters that live underground, to those that dwell in forests and graveyards, to those that soar up in the sky"-- |
