Imaginative Adventure
This book lays the background story to the Myst game series. It is indeed a fascinating and imaginative tale of the ages. While not very thought-provoking, these books lead imagery to the max if you let it. I highly recommend this series for those who want a long, satisfying adventure. If you're in the field of science & engineering the geological machinery, tools and D'ni Age creation are ...

Myst: The Book of Atrus
It really seems only fitting that a video game about books would have a series of books published in its name. For some reason when such books were first coming out I was sort of skeptical about their quality. I truly am glad I overcame this and decided to pick up the Myst books. I was an early enough adopter to be able to get all the hardcover texts and they are all beautifully designed. ...

This tale is frequently alluded to in the game and the prior book. In fact most of the prior book is trying ...

Beautiful book, even if not a Myst fan
Not usually a fan of video games, I was at first reluctant to read this book. However, I'm glad I did. It is a beautiful story, involving moving themes and wonderful insites into civil rights issues. Both well written and well paced, the book ranks as one of the best I've ever read, along with Tehanu (Ursula LeGuin) and The Time Traveller's Wife (Audrey Niffenger). It shows a stroke of ...

Wonderful...
Enter Myst: The Book of D'ni. The third installment of the wonderfully acclaimed novels of Myst. Rand Miller indulges us with another spectacular thrill ride of the magical worlds that were created via teleportation books known as the linking books. And this time, we're taken to not in D'ni, but to another world. A world that the D'ni tried so hard to protect, even after its tragic demise.... but ...
