Not actually a book, this set is an accumulation of 750 cards of various items, monsters, people, etc. from various AD&D worlds. The uses for these are near infinite! Need random encounters, draw a card from the monster pile... Same with items, NPC's, artifacts, traps, and maps! The sub-series are excellent! And, no matter what world your campaign takes place in (Forgotten Realms, Greyhawk, SpellJammer, DragonLance, Ravenloft, or Dark Sun) there are TONS of cards to suit your needs. I stronly recommend this set, though they are near-impossible to find. Hope you enjoy them if you get them!

One of the best card sets that I have ever come across. Truly meant to be one of TSR's greatest accomplishments in the trading card industry.

In the world of trading cards, this set is a monster... it was actually released in two parts, however, cards in packs are much more difficult to find than these factory sets. What I like most is the artwork...where else can you find 750 unique examples of fantasy artwork, all at once?

The 1992 Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Collector Card Set is a nicely made collection of cards filled with characters, items, templates, places, and traps from the AD&D, Ravenloft, Dark Sun, Spelljammer, Dragonlance and Al-Qadim worlds. The cards are wonderfully illustrated (taken right from prior artwork) and explanations for the card's subject exist on the back of each one. My one complaint is their numbering system--they seem to be numbered in a very haphazard order with no rhyme or reason. Overall this second of three collector card series from TSR is a nice item for fantasy role-playing enthusiasts who like a bit of nostalgia.
