What our customer's say!

"Good sci-fi", A fascinating book that is an interesting read, even if you're not a fan or player of the Myst game series. It provides a more spiritual backbone and reads somewhat like the illustrations you see in the Myst series: like a series of illustrative paintings that are of more simplified detail than the real world, but contain important moral lessons, and stunning visuals. The inclusion of three books gives one the feeling of immense amounts of time passing, though the narrative (if I remember right) only spans about one and a half lifetimes...

"A must have for Myst lovers.", For anyone, from young to adult, who is into Myst, this book, has to be in your book case. I wish it were in hard cover, and I do hope the Myst group, continues with this facinating story. My only regret is, I had to buy a new computer, and It is a Vista based unit, and all Myst programs play on Vista, except Game V, End of Ages. I mention this, here in the book review, because, I just want to give a heads up to those with Vista, who are thinking of getting the game. PLEASE, Myst Folks, Don't let us Vista users down. We have been faithful to you, so Let us enjoy, Game V, too. Buy the book folks. You will not be disapointed. I could not put it down, except for some sleep, till I finished it, and it has only whet my appetite for more, and kudos to Amazon, for their great internet buying service. They have never disapointed me so far, and I have been doing business with them for a few years now. Thank You.

"Entertaining and Deep", Nothing like a compilation for tons of good reading. The classic series comes together so even the Myst newcomer can get an in-depth view of the Myst universe in one fell swoop. All three books are compelling. I am not an avid "alternate universe" fan, and I loved these books.

ANY book-lover will be enchanted by the great "what if" contained in the Myst Saga. Highly recommended.

"Always wanted to get these volumes.", So far the first volume is fine. The binding is very nice for this 3-in-1 set. The book looks nice on the shelf, too, very decorative. I enjoyed Myst and Riven as games. Haven't finished Exile yet. But I look forward to reading these at my leisure.

"Good value but incomplete", Excellent value for all three of the Myst books, but it is incomplete. The prophecies, which i most enjoyed, are left out in this edition- why i don't know. The prophecies are very much germain to the novels, and re-reading the books without them was a bit dissapointing. Still overall an excellent value.

The Myst series consists of three novels in which the timeline of the story is broken up into. The first book tells the middle of the story, the second book tells the begining, and the last book tells the end. To read the books in chronological order read 2nd, 1st, 3rd.

The premise of the series is that there exists a superior race beneath the earth's surface called the D'ni. The D'ni are capable of writing magic descriptive books that link to other worlds, the potential for which is limitless. Thus they enjoy life in a surreal city of rock with the capability to "link" to any sort of world they wish at any time. One unhappy citizen sets out to ruin the great and ancient city of D'ni, a result of the accidental discovery of D'ni by a surface dwelling human and the events that follow her discovery of their civilization. In the last book, a perfect Utopia like cousin civilization is found, one whose ties with D'ni centuries ago they cannot understand. And then of course, they figure it out.
The plot is interesting, but not nearly as interesting as the concepts presented in the books- the different worlds, government structures and creations. If this series had any sort of political message it would be about racial tolerence and equality, for which the book makes a strong argument.

"Myst Reader", Great to read the history of the game, as I am a fan of making of movies etc, it looks like a whole world has been created.

"Great Books!!", I never even knew there was a game that went along with these books! I'm a single mom and not real into computer games, but I love fantasy books! I picked these up about a year ago because they looked interesting, and they are wonderful!

"Great Book ", Upon my interest of the civilization of D'ni, and Riven, I craved for more information, wanting to know so much more about D'ni, it's cluture, background, and structure. So, I ordered this book, and got more than I hopped for. It was exactly what I was looking for. I believe the order in which the books are placed is perfect and I reccomend this book to anyone, adults and children, who likes a good read that keeps you turning pages. If your interested in D'ni, and want to know more, this is the book for you. I can't wait for The Book of Marrim.

"Great stories, immersive world!", I read these books as a teenager several years ago, and they really were as vivid and immersive as the worlds of "Myst". While they won't help you beat the games, they really give you a lot of great backstory on the world, characters, and mythos of the games.

I highly reccommend this if you enjoy unique, creative fantasy or are a fan of "Myst"!

"One of the Best books I've read in a long time", I have read many books in my lifetime and this is very eliquent and great to read. It follows the game from Myst and Riven. I found that after I read it that I wish I had read the second book first and then the first and thrid.
