"Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs: Good plug-and-play book for intermediate to experienced GMs. Lots to chew on. Would have liked more minions and magic items, but the ones it does have are cool and give me a lot of ideas to make my own."

"Legendary Lairs: Unearthly Lairs: This makes my favorite monster and villain locations not only smarter, but a hundred times more fun. Perfect for cursed, haunted, and toxic locations."

"Legendary Lairs: Unearthly Lairs: The author says ‘You’re not just getting ideas—you’re getting a framework you can rely on every session’ This is exactly right. So is it repeatable in the sense of repetitive? No. There are so many ideas and such great original flavor in each realm, lairs will never feel like more-of-the-same."

"Legendary Lairs: Elemental Lairs: ...An absolute masterclass in mechanical depth for 5e boss encounters. The "crunch" is exactly what I look for... If you want to elevate your climactic boss fights from simple skirmishes to epic, memorable showdowns, this is an essential addition to your DM toolkit."

"Extreme Encounters: Weather and Terrain: Acid (included in the Unearthly Omnibus): As a DM who seems to attract very chaotic players, I'm always on the hunt for new and exciting ways to surprise them. This book offers a number of interesting (and, naturally, acidic) ways to do just that!"
