I really love this guide. Skyrim is such a beautiful game and it definitely deserved a wonderful, in-depth collectors guide. This guide features the DLC (Dawnguard/Hawthorne/Dragonborn) as well as the original game content and is packed with great content, colour-photos, and fan extras such as a large map of Skyrim. The guide is very easy to flip through and is packed with all the information you could ever want when it comes to enemies, items, quests, and just general know-how about this absolutely amazing game. I definitely recommend this guide to any Skyrim fan.
As far as a game guide goes, this is exhaustive and beautiful to look at. I deducted one star, however, because in my copy, the pages 481-511 were repeated, causing 512-545 to be missing. So it's either a printing error on my copy only, or a binding error, I'm not sure which. Either way, I'm missing much of the Dawnguard DLC information (though I have used the Skyrim Wikia page for most of my needs). Still a wonderful guide overall, and fun to leaf through.
This is an excellently produced manual for the game, but similar information is available electronically, and that makes it keyword searchable. Also, by its nature it contains plot spoilers. Good for a flick through, if you are a fan, to see what parts of the game you have missed.
