DM's Guide to Immortals: Additional References

The DM's Guide to Immortals includes a bibliography divided into three sections: Source Material (OD&D and the previous Basic Sets, although strangely missing the Cook/Marsh Expert Set), Additional References, and Inspirational Reading.

The list of additional references is quite extensive, and is analagous to the Non-Fiction sections in Moldvay's list of Inspirational Source Material.  (Mentzer's list of authors recommended for inspirational reading will be covered, tomorrow).
