Summary: A great comprehensive look at this class of the game.
Review: Easy to use, well written and until now, hard to find

Rating:
Summary: EXCELLENT! BUY IT!
Review: Everybody loves the Ranger. This book is really helpful in creating a very deep Ranger character. More kits, better information on followers, Ranger society and a wealth of other details. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves to play Ranger characters.

Rating:
Summary: Adds a lot to an Already Strong Character
Review: Excellent book with a lot to add for anybody that is playing a ranger or wants to play one. Some very strong kits (pathfinder, stalker, mountain man, etc) and a few week ones (what's up with the plant ranger?) Also recommended for a DM that wants to add an interesting ranger NPC into play.

Summary: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Review: I personally think this book is a big dissapointment compaired to the rest of the "Complete" books, most of the info is stupid, not well explained, or just dos not make sense (dos not go with a ranger) I do not suggest buying it!!!!! &:^(

Rating:
Summary: Best Book On The Subject
Review: Really Cool Book. Great Organization(Alkthough it can be hard to tell where a chapter ends. There Are Very Cool Kits too. My Three Favorite are the Feralan, Greenwood Ranger(Half Tree) and the Pathfinder. New Nonweaponprofiencies too. Also there are tables for primary terrain, spiecies enemy, and followers. The Cover even looks like tree bark, Buy it! (I hope I didn't make too much typos in this review)

Summary: Excellent work
Review: The book is excellent, I have always been a fan of Rangers( all of my most successfull characters have been of this class) I think it is the outdoorsman in me that draws me to them like a magnet. The book was put together well, I especially liked the entries about forgatherings and the times of the year they fall under, another thing I respected about the forgethering entrys was that they left you only with a vauge impression of how they opporate, leaving DM's such as myself with complete artistic freedome, It's a must buy for anyone even considering playing a Ranger of any type

Rating:
Summary: Disappointed, Good for higher level Rangers
Review: The book is well organized. Writing style is reader friendly. However, over 60% of books is of interest only to players running Rangers above 7th level. I bought the book because I knew nothing about Rangers, and wanted more information for running a beginning level character than found in the Player's Handbook, or the the Skills & Powers book.

Summary: Great use of page space
Review: The PHBR (Player's Handbook Reference) series is one of the most highly-regarded, and yet much-maligned, series of supplements ever created. Each sourcebook takes one of the races or classes of the AD&D game, and adds to it huge amounts of new detail - new equipment, spells, kits (sub-classes), lore, new rules, etc. The problem is that the players love these so much that the DM often feels compelled to buy into the rest of the series - an expensive proposition! Fortunately, these works were "reprinted" in the excellent AD&D Core Rules CD-ROM. This one includes everything you need to know to design and play a Ranger - chapters include requirements, level advancement, spell use, weapons and armor, tracking, animal empathy, natural lore, strongholds, followes, kits (such as the Explorer, Falconer, and Giant Killer), proficiencies, new spells and magic items, equipment, role-playing, religion, forgatherings, and more! An indispensible tome.
