The new D&D supplement is meant to complement the “essential” core rules of the Player’s Handbook, Dungeon Master’s Guide and Monster Manual, and it is well worth the $49.95 retail cover price for the standard edition. (Sorry - the dueling character running commentary through the book may have left a mark more on that in a bit.) Out today in wide release, Volo’s Guide to Monstersisn’t your typical Dungeons & Dragons “monster manual.” But it is very much a monster manual.Ī contradiction? Yes and no.
