Here there be monsters!
What is a hero without monsters to vanquish? This 328-page book presents hundreds of different
creatures for use in the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Within this tome you’ll find
fire-breathing dragons and blood-drinking vampires, vile demons and shapechanging
werewolves, sadistic goblins and lumbering giants, and so much
more! Yet not all the creatures in this book are enemies, for some
can serve lucky heroes as allies or advisors, be they summoned
angels or capricious nymphs. And it doesn’t stop there—with
full rules for advancing monsters, adapting monsters to different
roles, and designing your own unique creations, you’ll never be
without a band of hideous minions again!
The Pathfinder RPG Bestiary is the must-have companion volume
to the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook. This imaginative tabletop
game builds upon more than 10 years of system development
and an Open Playtest featuring more than 50,000 gamers to
create a cutting-edge RPG experience that brings the all-time
best-selling set of fantasy rules into the new millennium.
The Pathfinder RPG Bestiary includes:
More than 350 different monsters
Dozens of monstrous variants to modify creatures and keep
players on their toes
Numerous lists of monsters to aid in navigation, including lists
by Challenge Rating, monster type, and habitat
Extensive rules for creating effective and balanced monsters
Rules for advancing monsters by hit dice, template, or class level
Universal monster rules to simplify special attacks, defenses, and
qualities like breath weapons, damage reduction, and regeneration
More than a dozen feats tailored especially for monsters
Suggestions for monstrous cohorts
Two dozen additional animal companions
More than a dozen different wandering monster encounter tables
AND MUCH, MUCH MORE!

The following errata has been made available for the Bestiary (this errata has already been incorporated into the Second Printing):
Well worth the wait, the Pathfinder Bestiary is an incredible tome which scratches all of my deep-seated creature based needs. The illustrations are superlative. The proofreading rocks! (What can I say, I'm a pedant) And best of all, it's 100% PFRPG compatible.
With this, most of my favorite creatures are brought into this Brave New World of gaming. From the humble, yet deadly Goblin to the championing Solar every creature contained herein is given its due.
