Talk:Volo's Guide to Monsters

Reviews

Does anyone have this book and can tell me how it is? Can you compare its contents to another book in terms of value? BigShotFancyMan (talk) 11:29, 27 December 2017 (MST)

It details 13 player-character races (including 6 monstrous races like orcs), which is pretty much the only content useful to PCs. It also details lore about different groups of monsters, and 100+ monster stat blocks that can't be found elsewhere. The value of this information depends on what you find useful. - Guy (talk) 15:29, 27 December 2017 (MST)

That's fair and all, but do you have an opinion about how useful it is? XGtE is like a niche book in my opinion, I am curious if this is similar where I will only use bits and pieces from time to time, or is it a book I'd like to look/read up on things in between sessions.
