Quite good. Wish they would have put more information about the characters in the book though. A must have for any fan of Arrow.

A good book to have for an Arrow fan. But in truth most of the information within you could find with a relatively quick wikia or imdb search.
The images within are lacking. There are no original photos. Everything from screen shots to promotional photos has been thrown in.
Written before the start of season 3 and season 1 of The Flash the information is "historic". It wasn't quite written like an encyclopedia. It's quite hard to try and find a way to describe the information. It would have been interesting if they presented it more like printed versions of Felicity's research files.
Am I disappointed in my purchase? No.
But I do feel it was a wasted opportunity. It could have been used to answer so many questions that fans want answers to or expand on previous storylines.

An interesting little time capsule of the state of Arrow following the season 2 finale. Unfortunately suffers from typos as well as some truly strange errors throughout, but happy to have it on my bookshelf with the rest of the Arrowverse books.

Good summary of the characters and plot of the first 2 seasons of the show. The way the information was presented could have been better though.

As a fan of Arrow, I was very much excited for this character guide. It goes into detail with each character from Season 1 and Season 2. The book is presented nicely and key information for each character is given. A great guide for each fan of the show.
