Customer Reviews
The book
Very helpful complement to the rest of the series. Though, It could use an update on the time lines so they can be seen more clearly.
I'm disappointed...
In the fact that the timeline was obviously not remastered for the iPod.
One of the reason I bought this $10 book was to have a timeline reference of the events in the entire series, which I have been reading religiously for 2 months now.
I begin looking through the alphabetical entries in the beginning of the book, but I skipped ahead to a timeline that I cannot hope to read.
1) the resolution is terrible.
2) if you try to increase the text size, it does not make the timeline any clearer.
3) when you click the image and pinch-to-zoom, it still has the terrible quality of the small picture.
4) when you pinch to zoom it is near impossible to read the text.
I know that is probably too much to ask, but I would really like to see that this timeline be remastered so WE CAN ACTUALLY READ IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER THE EVENTS THAT UNFOLD.
