4.0 out of 5 stars Very entertaining, even for non-Myst'ers 24 Sep 2004
By Sophia Burns
Format:Paperback
The books are very entertaining and easy to read. The first book starts with a bang, the relationship between the main character (Atrus) and his father Gehn are determined right from the moment he was born.

After that an interesting tale is told, about the D'ni, an ancient underground culture and the descripting art of writing they developped, which makes it possible to travel to the worlds written. This is the perfect basis for endless twists and plots, and the books are over before you even realize it, making you crave for more.

These are entertaining books for everybody, but for those who played any of the Myst games or Uru, they are an absolute MUST. They complement and explain the games in such a way that they enrich the games no end.

The Myst Reader combines the three books in one volume. Get it now, you won't be disapointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Companion To The Myst Games 9 Nov 2005
By father2 VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have been playing Myst puzzle games since 1995, when I played the original Myst on the Sega Saturn and as a result I found that I had simply hundreds of questions. These three books, all bound together in one volume (Book 1: The Book of Atrus; Book 2: The Book of Ti'ana; Book 3: The Book of D'ni) have helped to fill in the gaps in my knowledge. All of the stories are well written and when I replay the games this extra knowledge makes the experience much richer. Very often knowing the background to the story helps you to make the right decisions in the various games, so in that sense too having and reading this book is very important. If you love Myst then you simply have to own these stories because they are essential reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved these books for years. 6 Feb 2011
By Ms. Hayley V. Morris
Format:Paperback
I've tracked down the 3 hard back editions, owned book 2 and 3 in paper back, and bought the Myst Reader. Safe to say I love these books.
The order of the books in the series is book 2, book 1, game 1 game 2 book 3 game 3, 4, uru, 5.
These books are so in-depth and give a real feel of the people of D'ni and its history. it also makes some sense as to how the family ended up on Myst.
Rand and Robyn Miller are truly amazing and i think these books need some recognition.
Please buy it, and vote that it gets ebooked for kindle as I'd really like to buy it on there.
