Complete waste of paper. Everything written in this book was either said in the actual series or impossible considering what happened in there. I was kind of hoping that the pictures would be awesome but if they were, I didn't notice it.

I was very excited to have a look into the book and expected it to be full of illustrations. I was a little disappointed in the lack of detail and the few pages it had but the cute notes, and pop ups were worth it.
Although Glaedrs eldunari was a bit silly to add as in the book it was described as large enough for Eragon to barely be able to hug it, and here at the end of the book was a small plastic rhinestone. An illustration with texture and glitter would have had a better effect in my opinion.

Three words; fun, fun & fun.
I'm not really sure what to say about this book, except that it's AWESOME! I wish I could get an insiders look like this with some of my other favorite novels. This is a must have for fans of this series. The book itself is beautiful! The pages are wonderfully detailed, there is so much that I never even thought about, such a thorough exploration of the world. I am truly impressed.
I was always a fan of pop-up books when I was younger, one of my favorites (that I still own) is the Christmas Postman! Love that book! The Guide to Alagaesia reminds me of that book in many ways with all the extra additions, open flaps, dragon scales, textures, colors, it's fantastic! It's just fun!
It could also be a great introduction to the series, there are a few things that you don't discover until later novels that are present in the book, but I think that's pretty minimal.
Such a great book, I feel like I discover something new every time I open the pages!

A beautifully illustrated book, that summarizes the world of Alagaesia perfectly.
Very useful, if it has been a while, since you've read part 1-4 of the Inheritence Cycle and can't quite remember all the places, beings or details when starting book 5 Murtagh.
The only thing, I would critizise is, that there isn't really any new information about Alagaesia, so if you were hoping for that, you will be disappointed. It's "just" a summary, of what we already know.

Litt for rotete og barnslig for meg, så tydeligvis er ikke jeg målgruppen. Men den viste veldig godt ting som beskrives i bokserien.
