Summary: This book is great! It covers quests too!
Review: I know some of you guys think this is a waste of money, but i would say this is worth your money. I mean, do you want to print 200+ pages full of words? or would you like a book with pictures and cover everthing in W&W.

Why I put my rating to 5: This book covers all the quest. This book gives you tips for completing quest at certain levels. This book has maps on all the places like forests, swamp or crypts. This book is a easy to understand. And finally, this book is a life-saver!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't Waste Your Money
Review: OK, it's not the best strategy guide, but given the skimpy manual and the glossy but inaccurate map that comes with the game, it gets the job done. As an early reviewer wrote, there are missing parts and some serious errors. What really hurts the most is the lack of a "by the numbers" walk through: First do this, then next you go here, don't go to C before you've talked to B, etc. There is some of that, in a few places, but not nearly enough. And the encounter guides give you little information on how tough your foes will be. For example, it ought to say don't try the toad quest until your party is at level xxx and has yyy hit points or you'll be slaughtered. So, is it worth the money? Yes, but just barely!

Summary: Don't Waste Your Money
Review: This book has been absolutely no help to me at all in the game. There are errors and omissions, muddy maps that don't have some important areas marked, and it is generally lacklustre in effort. It makes you wonder if the author actually played the game. My suggestion is to save your money, and go to a couple of the websites that exist for the game. The Ironworks has a Wizards and Warriors Forum and there are *accurate* walkthroughs for the game.

Summary: Save your Money, Folks
Review: This book is a waste of money, folks. What this guy tells you, you are able to figure out for yourself. I buy the guide so that I don't need to go through all of the combinations and permutations for puzzles that need this type of solution. I buy the guide so that I am sure that I have the right item to solve a problem. I look for accurate information and not misleading strategies. This book did not satisfy my needs. It was misleading, inaccurate and incomplete.

Summary: Great deal
Review: this strategy guide is 1 in a million it helps you when you get stuck and tells you where you need to go.It tells you the uniqueness of each character and their skills. when I frts bought this game i got stuck on the part when the witches tell you to find the symbole of the chosen one. so i went out and bought it and finally got passed it and moved on to my quest.So what are you waiting for buy this strategy guide.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Pitiful excuse for a guide book...
Review: What you get here is page after page of misinformation. And.. just to add to the mix.. ommissions that are critically important to completing quests.. not to mention obtaining the game's ultimate goal. One entire (and very huge) area has no corresponding map what so ever.

Save your money and visit the fan sites. You'll get better info there.
