Product Description

Product Description
Everyone's in love with vampires, and if his name happens to be Edward Cullen, then readers of the wildly popular "Twilight" series by Stephenie Meyer can't help but be crazy about him. For all those who adore Bella Swan, Edward, and the rest of the Cullen family and can't get enough, this companion guide is a must-read and a terrific gift.Written by Stephenie Meyer, the books follow an unlikely couple: Bella, a teenager, and her boyfriend Edward, a vampire that has sworn off human blood. But their love is ill-fated - being a vampire, Edward must keep his passion in check, lest he is driven to suck Bella's blood. With legends, lore, and myths about everything from vampires to werewolves to immortality, a bio of the author, and a ton of insight into the four-book series, this companion guide will give millions of readers the insider information that they've been waiting for since book one. This book coincides with the 2008 film release of "Twilight", by the best selling author Stephenie Meyer of the "Twilight" series.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dreadful Book, 14 Nov 2008
If I was not forced to at least give the book one star, it would be getting no stars... 'Unauthorised Guide' in the title should have given it away. This book is dreadful. Does Lois H. Gresh actually believe that this guide is adding any value to the 'Twilight Saga' or providing anything insightful to its dedicated fans? The author is trying to make money off the back of the success of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Saga and the upcoming Twilight movie. Truly dreadful!!! Do not waste money to buy this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst book ever!, 27 Feb 2009
This is the worst book I have ever read. It is not only poorly written, it also has no insight into the Twilight saga and cannot profess to be a guide to the saga at all. In fact, it seriously detracts from the saga in that it tries to comment on vampire lore and tradition as if it is a real life event which people experience on a daily basis! Twilight is a fictional story, a great story, but still fictional. Why try to factualise it with made up facts and statistics (like the caloric requirement of a vampire), and make the characters every day ones, when you read it exactly because they are not everyday characters?

1.0 out of 5 stars DON'T BUY IT - TAKE MY COPY, PLEASE!, 13 April 2009
By S. M. Bourne "Fiction Fix" (Stanwell, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Twilight Companion: The Unauthorized Guide to the Series (Paperback)
I cannot explain the disappointment I felt when I got home after buying this atrocious article of a "book" and discovered that it was a load of trollop not even written by Stephenie Meyer but in fact it was put together by a money hungry "fan"!

Seriously don't spend your money on this waste of paper, if anyone is really that curious about it, you can have my copy and save your cash.

I won't be fooled again, I know I should have looked at the book before buying it but I was too hopeful that my Twilight addiction would be fed a little to take much notice...
