By a complete coincidence, I got the Green Ronin book Book of Fiends directly before a thread popped up on asking people's opinions on the sourcebook it was trying to 1-up, The Book of Vile Darkness. Personally, I think it's great at what it tries to do, even though I'm not going to be using its Planar Cosmology (but I'm still going to be reusing the monsters in said Cosmology), and while I understand why they did it and that this is just me having a different opinion than the publishers, I'm a bit annoyed that they didn't put in stats for the Demon Princes/Exarchs/Archdevils that they talked about. I think the monsters are on a spectrum of "not for me" to "brilliant," and the new base class is good, even if it has the strangest alignment restrictions on the face of the earth. What do you think?
