Awesome monsters. Great imagination and design. Gorgeous artwork, but unfortunately the image resolution is very poor on the pdf version.

Absolutely incredible monsters. KP has a way to play with the monster stats and mechanics that boggles the mind and makes for an incredible encounter. I’ve had an absolute blast introducing these baddies at my table and my players always enjoy the fresh variety that the Tome of Beasts add to the table.

This is an amazing asset for any DM.
I found it particularly helpful since I run a game with multiple other DMs as players and it has helped me come up with surprises for them without the burden of having to home-brew everything.
