I LOVED this book, it is so beautifully illustrated!!!!
It's written by Hunson Abadeer, ruler of the Nightosphere, but Jake, Finn and Marceline leave side notes throughout the book. Basically it's just a whole lot of random stuff about the characters and places in the land of Ooo.
This is perfect for Adventure time lovers, and it's awesome!

I like the Adventure Time cartoon; it's good natured, funny and well written with plenty to make adults laugh as well as kids.
To start with the positive the book is very nice to look at, the artwork is impressive and the layout is fun. If you are a fan of the series though you may be disappointed overall.
My main beef is the lack of detail. The writers decided to have the book 'written' by one of the characters. I feel this was a poor choice because, where I was hoping to find alot of background info to the characters all I found were fairly short, largely nondescript and asinine entries in the 'character' of Hunson Abadeer which may have been funny in places but quickly become tiresome. Many of the characters were left out completely.
It felt a bit like the book was churned out in a hurry with little or no real creative thought going into it just to make a quick buck which is a pity

As a huge Adventure Time fan, I HAD to get this book! One thing I have to comment on is the use of the letter Æ...
Anyway, this book contains everything you've wanted to know about Adventure Time and more. It is written by Marceline's father, and Marceline, Finn and Jake often comment on his writings throughout the book. One of the first pages contains a backward foreword, which I actually read, hahah.
The book describes most of Ooo's inhabitants, beginning with the most important ones and then alphabetical order. Then we have a section with goodies made by several characters, secrets of Ooo, a rebus and more.
I read this im basically one sitting, and I enjoyed it a lot. Though I feel like it could have contained something more, but I'm not sure of what.. I don't know, maybe I'm just obsessed.

Mostly already known stuff. beautifully illustrated where there are such. Otherwise, unlike the main comic book, nothing new.

Still four solid stars.
February 2015: 4 stars This was a really nice book, both (of course) because of all the Adventure Time trivia but also because of the way it was written. I especially liked the notes from Marceline, Finn and Jake - I'm sure it would have been great without them but it definitely made the book more alive. And speaking of living books, I really liked the ending too.

If you like the show even remotely, then you will love this book. You have to have a good sense of humor while reading it though. Love it

This was fun, but not quite up to the awesomeness that is the cartoon. if you like the show, check out the book.

Este libro destila sarcasmo puro y es una delicia por eso.
"Escrito" por Hunson Abadeer, el padre de Marceline, se dedica a describir a los habitantes de la tierra de Ooo en su bajeza, en sus evidentes carencias y costumbres despreciables, en sus físicos aborrecibles y desagradables, en todas sus fallas morales y falta de inteligencia.
Es un libro para hardcore fans of AT, si no han visto la serie no van a entender nada, porque además está anotado por Marceline, Jake y Finn
