What the Critics Say

"Rick Meints' MIGs have always been awesome. The newest one not only has the benefit of 20+ years of additional research, but Rick is also now in charge of Chaosium, so there's some secret lore in there as well." — Shannon Appelcline, Designers & Dragons.

My copy arrived this morning. A gorgeous looking production, and a fantastic tribute not just to the indefatigable efforts of @Rick Meints but to all the creativity of the cast of thousands who appear in it.

It’s phenomenal, Rick. I’m amazed at how much information you’ve crammed into it. (And to be honest, sometimes I think I might stop cataloguing the Jonstown Compendium stuff in the hope it would force you to step up.)

So what do people think of the book?

I find in invaluable in finding where to look in my sprawling paper and PDF collection- the index I never knew I needed as my grey matter fades with age. Plus it’s handy in answering Facebook and Discord questions 😉
 

On top of that, it’s just a fun read, particularly the Things That Never Were (as @jajagappa mentioned).

I refer to it frequently. Little bit shocked to discover it's currently OOP on the Chaosium website! (Unless this means we'll get the leatherette edition as part of a reprint exercise 😉).
