For the first time, see the amazing sights of Halla as only Bobby Pendragon has. From the watery depths of Cloral to the rugged mountain ranges of Denduron to the jungles of Eelong, from the Earth territories to the decaying fantasy world of Veelox, it¹s all here. So are the Travelers: Uncle Press, Vo Spader, Loor, Aja Killian, Alder, Gunny, and Kasha, and of course, Bobby Pendragon and Saint Dane.
This is your private flume to Halla. Enter and discover old friends while you learn new secrets. But remember one thing: This is only the beginning.
Not too shabby The Pendragon series has been rediculous fun! I thought the guide would tell a little more about the territories and give depth to the whole of the story that is Pendragon. I, personally, could have done without the pictures. I prefered having the images in my head that I generated from reading the books.
Otherwise, it's a worthwhile purchase.
I didin't like it. I didn't like this book. A friend of mine got it from the library and she was grateful that she didn't buy it. The #1 thing that just turned me off was the pictures. they were terrible. Bobby is Bobby so what can I say? He looked the same as always. But what about Loor? In the books it said she was a black person and it wouldn't have been to hard to make her because she was on the front of "The Rivers of Zadaa". So what is with the white skin and a white persons features and red lips? What's with Spader? He looks like his IQ is about 7 and he has a big ego. The only person I really liked in the pictures was Uncle Press. He looked like you would imagine him. He had grayish hair with a kind, handsome face and a leather jacket. Completely Uncle Press. All in all I didn't like this book at all. This book isn't for you if you take what the books say about the characters literally.
BAD BAD BAD! I really like the Pendragon book series, and I thought this book would be equally good. However, I was very wrong. The illustrator of 'The Guide to the Territories of Halla' must be different from the book illustrator because these drawings aren't all that great. Bobby looks... terrible. And Spader looks enormous (across). Plus, the book does not include pictures of 2 of the main characters: Courtney and Mark. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK! It is short. 48 pages of not-that-great drawings. I am serious. If you buy this book, you will think: 'Why didn't I listen to that kid telling me not to buy this book? It's a RIP-OFF!!'.
Loved it My 10 year old son couldn't put this series down. He loved it. Highly recommend it!
No No No I am a huge fan of this series, and this really was disappointing. The writing bit was decent, but the illustrations didn't meet my standards whatsoever. i was thoroughly disappointed with a few of the drawings as they didn't even follow the author's descriptions. It was irritating reading a book in a series I enjoy immensly that was so dismal.
