I had never heard of it before the movie. I watched the movie and I liked it. The other day I was in the book store and had picked up the Ultimate guide up several times before this visit and put it back. This time I said what do I have to lose? I want to read it. I have some time on my hands (Healing from surgery) so I bought it. It had a lot of exciting bits where the exciting bits were and a lot of boring bits where the boring bits were. I thought the first two books were the best.
