is there any reason to buy the "Battle for Skylands" book if I already have the Annul?
I looked at it in the store, and it looks like they just copied a few pages and left out the rest, is there anything new in it at all?

If you have the Annual, then you don't have to buy Battle for Skylands, since they do indeed have a few pages you've already seen. It's more of an activity book.

No, it's not a complete copy job. Several pages are just the same as the Annual.

finally got around to buy the activity book, and wanted to say that there is nothing new in it compared to the Annual. all they did was change some words like 'super' to 'diner' and 'rockpooling' to 'sea shell collecting'. and they added stickers. but over all its a complete disapointment. they left out more then half the pages in the Annual. also, molten hot dogs quiz book is a crappy copy job of the paperback quiz book. it dos have some things about hot dog in it that the paperback dos not, but all this info can allready be found in the 'fire and water elemental book' so theres no point in really buying it if you allready have the paperback quiz book and the elemental book. also tons of pages were left out again. just like the Annual was never released in the states, the paperback quiz book wont ever get a release either. EDIT: there is one new sentence of information in molten hot dogs quiz book that is not found any where else. its about hot dog not being able to smell for a week after he burnt his nose. just so you collectors out there know. |

The Gill Grunt and the Curse of the Fish Master book is going to be out next week, though I was hoping Walmart would have it early like they always do.

No no, the stories are actually pretty good, the same with The Machine of Doom novel. There are six more Mask of Power books going to be released after the Water one.

I really want the Pick your Portal one and Secret Vault of Secrets one. Reasons why: Pick your portal becuase I think its one where you make up the story and I love them and Secret vault of secrets because it has Spyro and Whirly wind!

Anyone know if the Spyro and The Giants book will receive a digital release? I really would like to read the book since it might take place during or after the events of Skylanders: Giants; but I rather not go to a store and buy a level 3 easy read book.

Would someone mind making a simple list of books without pictures, descriptions etc.? I'm trying to track them all down, but my area misses out on a good amount of them which is frustrating.

The strategy guide or Master Eon guide? The strategy guide will be out at launch. The Master Eon guide will be out (most likely) long after people have actually beaten the game. That is what happened with the first two games.
