"Everything you ever wanted to know... and MORE!"
Excellent guide to the Twilight Saga series – it has a comprehensive overview of all the vampires, werewolves and humans, a who's who of the covens and wolf packs as well as family trees of the Quilietes and includes a timeline of events, so you know exactly what happened when. Some beautiful illustrations as well! It was money well spent!!

"must have for all twi-fans"
I am evenly split between happiness and disappointment. There were so many wonderful bits of information in the Guide, things I never thought to wonder about and answers to numerous niggling questions. However, so many things were left out.
On the bright side, the paucity of information means there's lots left to the imagination. Readers and writers of Twilight fan-fiction will not lack for story options. I also wonder if the major holes in various characters' biographies (specifically Alice and Jasper, as well as Renesmee and Jacob) were done in purpose to leave room for future books.

"Great Read"
Contains lots of new background stories about the characters, including the minor ones, that wasn't revealed in the original series. Also has a variety of illustrations of the main characters and locations such as the medow as well as maps of the area the Twilight series is based. However the Guide tells you nothing of the future of the characters so leaves you wondering what happened to them.
Overall it was a great read and is simply a must for all fans of the Twilight series.

"For Twi-fans"
Jacob said in the last Twilight book that he needed a guide to remember all
the details of the vampires who were crowding the Cullen house. I think he'd
have appreciated this book. Just about every character who appears in the
Twilight saga gets a description, and many get pages of backstory. Most of the
information about the Cullens is already present in the books (a notable
exception is Alice's human life – very interesting), but numerous secondary
characters have great new information. Many of them could make great novels in
their own right. I found Alistair's story particularly dramatic. Some raised
additional questions … For example, we learn old Quil was married to one Molly
Swan. Does this mean Bella and young Quil are cousins to some degree?
My one critique of this section is the inconsistencies in the information. Eg
Jane and Alec transformed in 800AD, yet not meeting Carlisle until Eclipse. The
dates given for Peter and Charlotte's transformations, the times mentioned in
the book, and in the timeline seem mismatched. It may seem picky and obsessive
to be bothered by this kind of thing, but let's face it, people who read
guidebooks embrace obsession, even when it concerns a fictional universe. I get
the impression a lot of dates were left vague in order to cover the potential of
future books.
The interview with Stephenie Meyer at the start would be of most interest to
young people considering a career in writing, I think. There's also a section
where it details the plot points in books chapter by chapter. Perhaps of
particular use to someone trying to fake a book review of Twilight for school
without having actually read it.
A highlight of the book was the fanart gallery. It's great to see fan
creativity celebrated in this way. I only wish this section was longer. They
could easily publish an entire coffee table book of fanart.
Overall, it was a satisfying guidebook, and I recommend it as a gift idea for
Twilight fans.
"100 percent excellent"
I've been looking at this product wanting to get it but didn't in case it was a huge disapointment so I left it for awhile.Then I read a comment from one reviewer and she was totally on the ball about it. Totally worth it,she was right.A must for any twilight fan..so thanks
