Great source material for dnd 5e. Lots of creative magic items that are organized and easy to find in the book. The extra player race and adventures are just an bonus.

What’s an adventure without your eyes on the prize…and TREASURE!!!
The Griffon's Saddlebag: Book One - 5e D&D Magic Items is a fun sourcebook of magic items…as well as some new critters and player options as well as a new big bad…
This book contains of hundreds of magic items of various rarity (along with handy tables for random rolls). They range from weapons to armor to mostly wondrous items of various utility and type…
Honestly rolling for a random item can probably inspire a fun side quest as you think about the reasons such an item exists and who would want it…
Then again, knowing players they can turn any bizarre or seemingly useless item into a game breaker (as is their custom)…so even the weirdest magic items could be a game changer…
The back fourth of the book has a new cool griffin-humanoid player race, some class stuff, and three settings to send your players (an Arctic glacier, a mushroom forest, and a cosmopolitan city, with monsters and plot hooks aplenty) as well as a big bad necromancer that you might choose to send them after if you are so inclined…
Fun book…
