Who is This For?
If you are buying a Dungeons and Dragons product for a loved one, you might consider giving this if:
1.) She or he is serving as a part-time or full time Dungeon Master. This book contains the monsters only the DM should have access to. Players who have no interest in serving as a DM should not have access to this book.
2.) He is new to Dungeons and Dragons and doesn’t have a group of players. Chances are he’ll have to be the DM when he brings his friends together to play. This would be a good purchase only if he expresses a willingness to be the DM.
3.) She is a DM and has mentioned that she is running out of monsters to throw at her players of is running short of new ideas. A book of new monsters is always good for a jump-start to the old creativity noggin’.
Do not buy this if:
1.) She is certain she only wants to be a player. The role of DM is taxing and requires a lot of pre-game preparation and creativity. Many Dungeons and Dragons players live happy lives never touching any of the Monster Manuals.
2.) He is certain he wants to continue playing an earlier version of the Dungeons and Dragons game.
2.) She is still uncertain if she wants to continue playing the game or not.
