Wonderful fantasy that everyone can enjoy!
This is the first
book
of the series that I read (missing The Book of Atrus) and I'm now into Book of D'ni. A reader doesn't have to know all about the games
Myst
or Riven to understand the goings on. I'm a 34 year-old mother of two and couldn't put this book down!
Inspirational, Imaginative, Addicting!
It has been quite a long time since I have read a truly addicting
book
. Until I idly picked up
Myst
: The book of Ti'
Ana
, while strolling up and down the shelves of a bookstore.I spent an hour in that bookstore, unable to tear my eyes from the page long enough to buy the book. I fell in love with the characters, and the spectacular discription of everything. This may sound corny, but I actually felt like I was there.The words, and language are spectacular. Wild horses could not have dragged me away from this book. I highly recommend it to any Myst fan, or anyone who loves to read a good piece of art. Because this book truly is just that:a piece of art.

But Can We Ever Forgive You Ti'ana (Anna)?
I doubt her husband, Aitrus (not Atrus) secretly did. There are mistakes, and there are MISTAKES. Oy! (And I'm not even Jewish). As the economist Milton Friedman states, "Good intentions can do the worst harm." This is really a good novel. Miller and Wingrove are not bogged down by the game of
MYST
. So this is really good stuff. Their previous
book
was a tad boring (to say the least) and rightfully so. It needed the same modality as the game. But this is a really good science fiction novel that stands on it's own. And you will find out where D'Ni is. It may be no futher than where you are standing (wink! wink!). I really liked Veovis. The D'Ni are a bit stoic, and their treatment of him was reprehensible. They done him wrong. An excellent novel. I enjoyed every page. And despite the fact that none of the characters of the MYST game are in this one, don't miss it. It sets the stage for the rest.

a wonderful book
This
book
, The Book of Ti'
ana
, is quite possibly the best book I have ever read, and I've read a lot of great books. I have read Ti'ana over twenty times (honestly) and it still leaves me breathless. The scope of vision is amazing, and the depth of feeling and theme is even more so. In this book, there is love and hatred and sacrifice, loyalty and betrayal, sadness and joy, tragedy and triumph. I know that sounds corny, but it's only true. I won't give away the plot, but what especially affected me is how a basically good man was tricked into becoming evil. Also, the love story of Anna and Aitrus (that's not giving anything away, you can read that on the back cover) was so sweet, wonderful, poetic, and bittersweet. Tears were streaming down my face by the final pages. And it wasn't like I finished it and started reading something else; I thought about it continuously for weeks afterward. The games are great, but you can love this book (and the other two
myst
books)even if you've never played the game. The Book of Atrus is awesome too, but i felt the Book of D'ni lacked the scope and feeling and imagination of the other two. What I'd like to see is a book about Gehn's growing up, how he became twisted after the twisting started in Ti'ana's book, and how anna and gehn started over... but I guess I'll have to wait for that. Wonderful book, guys: READ IT! You'll never forget it. =) }:I:{

An amazing and inspiring story
This
book
is one of the best books I have ever read. It draws fans of the game further into the legend of
Myst
. If you are familliar with the game, you will most likely enjoy reading this most excelent book.
