"Legendary Lairs - Elemental Lairs: If you find that your 'boss' fights run out of steam fast because of the action economy, then this is the book for you. Its guidelines on giving monsters lair actions and recharge actions keep your party on their toes and, frankly, just make combats more interesting."

"Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs: I learned more from this book than just about any other book on how to GM. The best part is, it's not just giving advice, it's handing you a 'better GM blueprint' with tons of simple to advanced templates. You can mix-and-match, tweak, and use them over and over. This book is a treasure chest of ideas no GM should live with..." Read more

"Legendary Lairs: Unearthly Lairs: I've always struggled to make store-bought adventures feel more like my own, and Legendary Lairs lets me do that. Without stressing, without hours of prep to "fix" them. As soon as I read it, I felt like I leveled up as a GM. That's how good it is. Belongs on your shelf next to The Lazy Dungeon Master and The Monsters Know W..." Read more

"Legendary Lairs: Unearthly Lairs: If you love danger and horror—the kind that is sadly missing from most 5e books—Unearthly Lairs delivers. While it's for 5e, it feels very OSR-adjacent. Grognards will love it, but it's not just for them. It's for anyone who wants more out of their 5e game. More thrills, more chills, more everything dark and dangerous."

"Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs: As a GM, I put a lot of work into my session prep. But since getting Legendary Lairs, I've been able to cut prep time in half. It really is that easy. 5 stars!"

"Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs: What I like most about this book is how easy it is to drop a template into an encounter. I don't have to change anything I wrote, I just add the template on top to instantly make the encounter better. And it's not just for more fun for me (mwahaha!) but more memorable for my players. Since I started using this book, I've nev..." Read more

"Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs: This book has everything a GM needs to run years of cinematically themed encounters and lairs. Best of all, there's zero filler, no lore dumps, just straight up, serious crunch."

"Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs: This book allows you to go beyond the standard encounters a DnD session usually has and sets you up to create a custom crafted monster lair or themed dungeon where you won't just be fighting the monsters and traps, but the terrain itself. It is a book that helps fill a dungeon/lair with atmosphere that does not just look the..." Read more

"Legendary Lairs: Unearthly Lairs: Interesting, meaty book for GMs seeking to bring darker locations like haunted ruins and swamps to life. Older or more experienced GMs will appreciate the many options, but it might be overwhelming for younger/newer GMs. Regardless, it should give them plenty of ideas and inspiration."

"Legendary Lairs: Unearthly Lairs: As a fervent homebrewer, I recommend pairing this book with the previously released Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs to double the possibilities. Other MageGate products such as the Extreme Encounters series will give you even more options to craft a thematic and deadly masterpiece. As a further third party recommendation,..." Read more
