Saw this book listed on Amazon and it's received some pretty good reviews. One reviewer stated that the book has very few illustrations. Does anyone own this book and does it lack illustrations? Not that eye candy in rules books is a mandatory requirement but…

I have a Kindle edition and I think it only wasa picture at the start of each chapter

There are only a handful of B&W pictures/illustrations in it.

Ah. Thanks for the info.Would you recommend it?

I haven't really read it or any parts of it for any length of time. There are 12 reviews of it on amazon. Maybe you can read those & make a more informed decision.

Will do.

Read all of the reviews earlier, hence my post. Was just curious about whether there were illustrations.

It is a book with a bunch of easy but very serviceable games. If that is what you are looking for, this is the book for you. Kindle price is only $3 USD BTW. If you are looking for a book to simply gaze at the artwork, look elsewhere.
