If you play the Dragonlance adventure game with SAGA, this book will tell you all you need to know to have any creature in your game! And even if you don't, it provides excellent background knowledge and stories about the creatures. It is great!!!

If you plan to play SAGA or you just red the novels, this book is for you. It is a narrative book by Caramon Majere. He shows us all the feinds and freinds in DL. The Illustrations are great and the set up is much nicer than TSR's past Monstrous Manuals and Compendiums. The reason I gave this only 4 stars is that the book didnt include mosses and fungi, and some plants that can play a major role in a SAGA campaign.

This book is well-written, lots of fun to read, and the illustrations are fantastic.

Fans of the novels will enjoy this as much as game players.

The truth is I LOVE this book. It is chock full of great story background and written from the standpoint of an adventurer. This is a book I can let my players peruse, or just let them have some of the background.

The only reason I can't rate it 5 stars, is that the book is listed as a hardcover, and the order I received, and every other copy I've come across, is paperback. I even contacted the seller before I purchased the book to specifically address this question, but they assured me that "this is the item as advertised".

I won't end up returning the book, as it is too much hassle and I doubt I can get a hardcover edition anyway, but this is rather disappointing as 3 out of the last 6 books I purchased from 3rd party Amazon sellers have been incorrectly listed.

This book is a classic among the classic titles of the Dragonalance Saga RPG. Even if you do not like roleplaying games games, but appreciate the Dragonlance novels, you can enjoy this book. It's beautifully illustrated and show an unique style of writing, pretending to be some kind of journal from Caramon Majere.

This book is jammed pack full of SAGA info on critters of Krynn. I have gotten a lot of useful information from it. I wish they had more than just the two books on Krynn.

This is such a good role-playing aid. it is well-written, & visually superb. it is THE BEST MONSTER MANUAL that TSR has put out. The Bomb!
