Okay, I just bought me a copy of this because I was curious.

IT IS AWESOME!

I thought the 4E MM was fairly well done - this beats it hands down. A great variety of monsters, familiar to the holders of the old CC books, but full of wonderful, unexpected surprises for those who haven't run across these book's creatures before.

One thing that wasn't pointed out that I'd like to note is this has not only creatures from Creature Collection I, but Creature Collection II (didn't check to see if there were any from III, but I suspect so.)

I also really like the sample NPC class monsters in the back - a very nice touch. I'm talking an example 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th and 30th level example of each class written up as a monster in the back, with race templates to go with it to customize each. The MM could have really used a section like that!

My only disappointment: none of the Carnival of Shadow creatures made it into the book. That's a very small disappointment though, it was just a hope to see them in the book. Also, while not a disappointment as the artwork is of very good quality, everything is in black and white. I just suspect some people might be turned off by the book not being in color (but as I have learned, B&W art is the best place to apply the crayons, just ask my 1E books )
