Goodman Games follow-up to the wonderful Dungeon Alphabet, Monster Alphabet, has finally been released in PDF for those who were not part of the Kickstarter. As I have found the Dungeon Alphabet to be indispensable during dungeon crawls, so too do I expect to find this book essential to running a game, whether Labyrinth Lord, Castles & Crusades, Dungeon Crawl Classics, or even 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons.
Here's the blurb:
An A-to-Z Reference for Classic
Monster Design
What foul beasts slosh and gibber
in the furthest reaches of your skull? Unleash your demons with the Monster
Alphabet, a compilation of monster design elements keyed to letters of the
alphabet.
A is for Android, B is for Breath
Weapon, C is for Crossbreed! Game masters of any rule system will find
inspiration for creating strange, new abominations: random tables of traits,
powers, and lore; awe-inspiring illustrations by your favorite fantasy artists
old and new; and rolling handfuls of dice directly on monster generation
diagrams.
The entries are accompanied by
fantastic art from classic fantasy illustrators and are compatible with all
fantasy role playing games.

designer Frank Mentzer!
