Great art book for SAO but the kindle formatting has the pages flipped for double page spreads

Oh my Gods!! I am a big fan of SAO (So far an anime only fan but I have all the books and plan to read them as soon as I can) and I must say this artbook is absolutely stunning. Of course, I am also a huge fan of Abec's work with her character designs and I marvel at each of her illustrations for the books on a not so irregular occasion. There were pieces from the first nine books and all sorts of sketches from magazines and such. Ooh, and the last part of the book focused on character designs/ sketches for the anime and manga and finally there was a short story by Reki himself!! Which I greatly enjoyed. Looking forward to actually starting the main series now.
Highly recommend to fans of SAO.

this is so unbelievably perfect - stunning - gorgeous - incandescent.

abec's thought processes and rationale for his work on the brilliance that is SAO is obviously interesting, sometimes funny, always revealing, and very personal. it is an incredible pleasure to have access to his comments as well as these incomparably beautiful drawings.

Such beautiful and depicting artwork. A true masterpiece.

Bought this when I was in Japan so I can't give much of a review in terms of the written content. Art-wise it's spectacular and recommend it to any fan of the series.

The reading direction is wrong

The reading direction is turn to the left, but this book is actually to the right, and there is no way to fix it in the app...
