Title: Are you taken by the Dragon?!
Review: I was honestly hoping for a source of information perhaps like that in Tolkien's The Silmarillian, and the accompanying encyclopedia. There was not art but a map of the old Earth, but it wasn't needed. Without spoiling the atmosphere, it perfectly added to the mythos of the Lord of the Rings. Instead I flipped it open to be horrified by the "portraits" within. Verin is ageless only due to the lack of detail, and Aviendha...? Reminds me of the lizard she spitted to show Rand. The sheer number of contradictions and typos is a quick turn-off, especially contradictory pieces within the book! Now that I've suitably bashed it, I ought to bring up the guide's good points. There is quite a bit of new information relating to Shara, Seanchan, the AoL, and the Forsaken. Overall, this book probably makes par... Par, however, won't win world championships any time soon.
