You can also add The Secrets of Magic / Anthology to my list which i give a...
5/10 - It litteraly is just the beginings of a bunch of random stories throughout dominarian history. Although several of them did make me want to find the rest of the story in whatever other book it's in and the last two chapters were about laquatus coming to power and Virot Maglan gaining the "death touch" thing and killing his familly which i enjoyed reading.

ok thats not good. it's just parts of the backstories of the blocks. Virot maglan becomes the First (Cabal patrician)
and the other part is fom the Oddysey Block. Laquatus enters power some timeb ebfore the first oddysey book. so i'd say thats probably not worth reading. you get the story in the block

No, it's the whole back story behind different characters in detail. They only make reference to those parts of the stories in the blocks they come from. So unless you've read the block containing the character, no, it's not very interesting. But, if you have you find out interesting facts like that when Virot first gained his powers he had to touch them then say "Suffer, Wither, and Die" before it would kill them and if he would pause in between... twisted

The guildpact book starts slow and get's interesting later on.
Crix would have been a better filler legend than Tibor and Lumia for the Izzet.

I just finished the Kamigawa Cycle and I believe that Toshi Umezawa and Tetsuo Umezawa (Legends Cycle 2) are related, because in the epilogue for kamigawa it says that Night's Reach sent him to a different world and when he awoke he saw Quote: Out to sea,he saw two huge spires of rock. They looked to perfect to be natural, but who could have constructed them? And what purpose did they server so far away?
He was Ravenously hungry, but the only edible thing he saw was a twig-sized sapling that might someday be a fuit tree. He carefully approached the edge of the rocky cliff. It was asheer drop of over one hundered feet to the pebbled beach below. If he wanted fish, he'd have to navigate down the treacherous cliff face, and his ribs were in no shape to do that. I think that the spires are the Talon Gates and the sapling is the temoya tree (near Sekana village in legends 2) and and it said that he smelled a swamp and went to it which as you can see on the MAP is just east of Sekana where Tetsuo's family manor has been for generations.

the kamigawa cycle books were preety good and so was the mirrodin cycle (the first mirrodin book was incredible though) and the oddyssey cycle was great (chainers torment and judgment rocked!) but the onsluaght cycle was the best
and i got to say that the ravnica cycle is very good too now.

Yea...So far i've read the Kamigawa block(which i thought was cool and all) and the first Ravnica...I'm sorry but So far C. J. Herndon isn't doing all too well. The story is almost perfect, but the presentation needs work. I'm halfway through Guildpact though. I read Invasion too.

I read them, alot of them. Most are good, but because they change authors alot sometimes the feel of the books completely change from one to the other. And some are flops, not all writers are good after all, but most are great, I really enjoyed Odyssey block.
