The Monsters of Magic

Rate this book
On Tolaria, a mage devises a spell that will exceed Urza's greatest creation, unless a phantom monster undoes it all. In Aphetto a young fighter and his magic-eating atog launch a quest for vengeance against a deadly enemy. In Jamuraa, a cat-dragon discovers a whole nation like her and sets out to teach them who is queen.

Dragons, Lhurgoyfs, delraichs, and other fearsome creatures from the world of Dominaria stalk the pages of these all-new tales.

Probably the best of any of the "Magic the Gathering" books. A collection of short stories that puts a spin on prospective. I really like how the "Magic the Gathering" books don't always have the "good guys" winning.

I've found that it's in these collections of short stories where MtG titles shine. It seems so much easier to craft a solid 20-40 page story then it is to fill an entire paperback. And if a story or two isn't to taste, the whole experience isn't a waste. It also helps that these shorter tales usually only touch on MTG lore and have the freedom to go farther afield, beyond the often shaky mythos.
