The Critters book is a compilation of critters and critter rules from other sourcebooks, mainly the Paranormal Animals books. It includes a full list of powers and weaknesses updated for third edition rules, as well as full game stats and short descriptions of each critter. Illustrations are thin on the ground—there are about a dozen critters on every two pages, but roughly one illustration in the same space—so if you want to know what all the critters look like, you'll have to track down the Paranormal Animals books. Some critters were also left out of the book: those considered "lame" (as Mike Mulvihill put it) and many spirit-like creatures, which should appear in Magic in the Shadows (which had not yet been released when this review was written). My conclusion is that, if you have no gamemaster screen and/or the Paranormal Animals books, this is a good buy. If you have one or both, you may want to spend your money on something else.
