4.0 out of 5 stars Draconomicon for the dead, 21 Oct 2004
By Alex Fell (Rugby, Warwickshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This is a continuation of the "draconomicon series" (for want of a better term) of heavily illustrated books focussing on monsters, undead in this case. It is similar in lots of way to the Draconomicon, focussing on physiology, psychology, magic items, character classes and feats, new monsters (including some very interesting templates and variants, and running the gamut of CRs from 1/2 to high teens), adventure ideas, how to play undead (as both a DM and a player) and some example intelligent undead (such as vampires, liches, mummies etc, including some history and motivations - quite good fun and some interesting ideas too).

It must be said that most of the illustration is pretty superfluous and not all of the highest quality. It is also not exactly a core rulebook, in that you can cope pretty easily without it. However, it is fun if you don't mind the cost.

3.0 out of 5 stars Necromancy or just Dead weight..., 3 Feb 2005
By Mr. R. H. Adams (Portadown, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Libris Mortis, where to begin. It's a good functional book with a good number of prestige classes for those interested in the Necromantic arts, a couple for those who wish to destroy undead, and a few specifically for undead. There are the obligatory new spells of which the entire "Summon Undead" line will have to be banned due to poor editing (Summon Undead II, a 2nd level spell, in theory allows you to summon a 16-Hit Dice Fire Giant Skeleon with the current rules...). Likewise obligatory undead have been added but in reality they are just covering roles already filled by other undead and most are unneeded, a few though are very good, most notably the Skulking Cyst, the remains of a malignant undead tumour that drags the corpse it exploded out of around with it... however, overall, while not a bad book, it should have been more throughly checked over and is not really a "Must Buy" type book.
