World of Warcraft Atlas, Second Edition

Gave all three of these books as a gift to 2 teenagers (male and female). The books were very well made and the artwork was excellent. The price was inexpensive considering the quality of the books. The teens found them helpful and fun to use in conjuction with the game. I was happy about the jealous friends part.

Just what I wanted

this Atlas is no longer useful since the release of the Cataclysm Expansion the world has changed drasticaly. It should only be used as a collectors item.

Book arrived on scheduled date and wasvery well protected for shipping.I can't wait to see my son's face when he removesthe plastic protection and checks it out.Thank you for a very nice book! :)

I received this and two other Atlases for World of Warcraft, and they arrived one day earlier than expected and were in great condition! it was a great deal buying all three together; Burning Crusade, Lich King & Atlas: Second Edition

First, I really need to say that I'm a newbie to the game. I've only been playing WoW for about a month now, so I still have a lot to learn. I bought this book because I was tired of trying to find places on the in-game maps and the ones in the BradyGames Battle Chest guides.The region maps in the book are fairly blurry, like they increased the size beyond the original and lost some picture quality along with it. It is used with a grid system like real maps are, which can or can't be helpful. While it does say, for example, that a Weapons merchant in Thunder Bluff is at D-6, there is no indication on the map as to where exactly they are within that square. You just have to run around that general area and see if you can find them.However, that is only the case with regions. Smaller towns and camps have smaller, somewhat more detailed maps further back in the book. The images are a little more clear and look a lot like what the developers may have used to show themselves where everything is. Instead of the grid-system, there is a number put on the map. So if you're looking for Manrik in the Crossroads, you just look for the number 12 on the smaller map.There is an index in the back where you can look up any character name you want, including rare spawns, and it will tell you the location(s) and grid mark, sometimes even a clue as to the exact location (i.e. "behind house")It also details where all the flight points are on a world map, as well as detailed paths of boats and zeppelins. The world map also provides locations of Instances. The class and profession trainers are also listed, so you don't need to know the name to look them up, just find what you want and it will tell you the name and location of who you need.All-in-all, it is very helpful. However, more details on the regions would be nice, such as numbers or letters within each grid square would be even more helpful (For instance: Weapons merchant mentioned above in D-6. It could be D-6-a, where the lowercase letter is in that square pinpointing their location). Better picture quality of the maps would be a pleasant addition as well.The book itself is very attractive looking. It is helpful, but as my title states, it could be even better with a little more attention to detail.

good quality, strong, easy to use.

Great product & fast shipping! Will be back!

I love this book. I am currently collecting the whole set. The beautiful and accurate maps of every region are so wonderful to look at. Highly recommend the book for anyone who use dot play the game and wants to relive some fond memories or anyone who currently plays classic!

Very Detailed Atlas that shows all regions of Azaroth. Looking for a rare mob or just searching to find a Quest location? You will find it in here for sure!

Life in WoW world without a good map and directory of where you can find your nearest poison dealer really is a pain in the arse. Honestly - go for the atlas. It's worth the cash.

I bought these atlas's for in game refeence and was utterly dissappointed in their contents. The only give the mot basic information, such or trainers and flight masters. The games guides from brady are far moe useful and much better value buy. If you are looking for guidance in Azeroth, DO NOT BUY THIS!!! BUY THE BRADY GUIDE!!

Good quality product but sadly not as detailed or as good as it could be. This being the second edition i expected more from it.Save your money and use the in game maps, in most cases much better than this book.
