You too can be a monster chaser. If you know where to look...

The guide was a fun read. Really liked the letters written to the hunter and the journal entries.

This was one of the first books we bought from this author and let me tell you it got us hooked. The pictures and stories are written almost as a guide. It tells you things about the beast such as their behavior, temperament and where they are found. We are seeking more books from this author I have even bought this book as a gift.

This book was actually pretty good. It left a few things unanswered so you were left wondering about certain people, other than that it was great. Beautiful illustrations, mysterious information, and unusual artifacts made this book a blast to read.
