Menagerie of Mortals is an excellent resource for any Storyteller. Having a ready-made stack of mortals at your disposal is an incredible time-saver. Most of the mortals provided come with solid roleplaying tips that provide a strong enough skeleton to build a memorable NPC on. The "Victims" section with simplified stats and character tags is actually quite brilliant. This book is definitely worth the price

Having said that, there are a few quality issues that provide speedbumps in the enjoyability of the product. First, (and least improtantly) there are some minor grammar/syntax issues that a good editing pass could solve. None of these are deal breakers, but they are distracting.

Secondly, there are some typesetting/layout issues that are distracting. They are few, but they are there.

Finally, some of the gear choices and characterizations of the NPCs made little sense to me (the street level drug dealer wielding a katana seemed comically misequipped)

Despite those issues (any and all of which could be corrected with an editing pass and update), I think this is a useful product that WILL enrich your Vampire game.
