When I first started reading it I was very impressed by the illustrations and narratives accompanying them. Posted by Maxwell Osenbach on 15th Sep 2016 Full Star Full Star Full Star Empty Star Empty Star 3 Little Bit Disappointing.Loïe Muzy, Mariusz Gandzel and Claire Delépée have managed to paint art of IMPOSSIBLE CREATURES and did a more then well done job, fantastic! It's not a must have, but it's a very good book for people who appreciate the art and some light lorebits of the mythos in this setting. In this book are also a page worth of Habitats, what the mythos eat/if they eat and a physical description of each creature within the book. I can without problems say that the art was worth the price alone.
I bought this book for the art only, to have images of some of the Mythos that doesn't exist anywhere else on the internet but in this PDF. Full Star Full Star Full Star Full Star Full Star 5 Amazing.The perfect prop for when investigators might stumble upon the research of a deceased character with profound Mythos knowledge. If you'd want to make this even more better or special: a limited edition as a leather bound notebook with a cord locking it all together would be simply amazing. Which makes sense, since the fictional person drawing and writing the articles would have to encounter that being and encountering Cthulhu would probably not end too well.
Yes, not all monsters, let alone gods are in it. The art work is simply put stunning and gorgeous, a pure joy to look at. It is exactly what the name suggests, a field guide some fictional person might have accumulated over years and years of research and studies (probably going more and more insane in the process). Unlike the Malleus Monstrorum this Field Guide to Lovecraftian Horrors does not intend to be a compendium of Mythos creatures.
