Overall, the book is still pretty good, but nowhere near as accurate as the original was to the original game. Unfortunately, this guide isn't as much of a re-write as it is a re-release. I got this guide after having purchased the original guide and used it to great effect with the original game. There are a number of details missing and a number of errors made in the weapons and armor section (no mention of the Sword of Aeons only doing 240 damage in the book). Buy it if you're having trouble doing the easy, tedious tasks (finding keys and getting through demon doors) but don't expect a whole lot of accuracy or detail in the newer sections.
But what the heck.Walkthroughs were complete but it is not necessary to do everything in the exact order given.
Fable can easily be played without a guide but this book will help you flesh out the story and find all the bits and pieces much more easily.
Do what you are in the mood to do and use the guide to check if you missed something fun.Well written and very informative.
The ability to see all of the available hair styles, tattos, weapons, armor etc is very nice.
Play it through once without the guide if you don't want to spoil the surprises and use the guide after that.
Not to mention finding all of the keys I had missed for all of those yummy treasure chests scattered around the world.Since the guide covers both the PC and console game, there were a couple of spots that evidently were not PC related and it was just a tad confusing a time or two.
I especially liked the weapon section so I could figure out exactly which of the uber weapons to look for.
Like, huh.
Buy it if you can.
