The Moon has been an object of fascination for religions, cultures, and societies the world over since the dawn of humanity.

The Moon is a beautifully illustrated account of our lunar neighbor in all its guises: a guiding light in the night sky, the driver of oceanic tides and natural cycles, the subject of exhaustive scientific study, and an enduring influence in literature, art, and popular culture.

Exploring theories for the Moon’s origins around 4.5 billion years ago, the book charts its influence on the calendar systems and mythologies of early societies, and its role in the invention of the telescope and the science-fiction genre. It tells the incredible story of the Cold War space race and the first Moon landings. Specially commissioned illustrations capture the Moon's phases and motions in vivid detail, while stunning photography and artefacts bring the rich history of lunar observation and exploration to life.

The last chapter of the book features extensive coverage of NASA’s Artemis mission to return astronauts to the lunar landscape in 2026, paving the way for future missions to Mars. The book also includes a guide to observing the Moon, complete with annotated maps and profiles of key physical features such as Tycho Crater and the Sea of Tranquility.

Straddling science, culture, and history across the world, The Moon is a captivating and richly informative celebration.

At least it's beautiful!
Format: Hardcover
Firstly, this book is beautiful to look at. The pages are heavy and glossy, and the artwork is all wonderful. Lots of things from the now defunct Initiates made it into the book, as well as the "conclusion" of the Desmond thread of the Modern Day plot from the comics. It's nice to lay on the coffee table for gamer friends to stare at for a few minutes. The major problem is the factual errors and editing issues. They're not obvious on first glance, but when you look a second or third time things truly stand out. Things like calling Chrétien Lafrenière one of Germain's allies on [Germain's] his profile page. I won't put all the errors I've found in my review for brevity, but for an item aimed at fans, it's disappointing to find so many of them. And these aren't small/minor details that are wrong. They're major plot points and important details of main story missions. I'm still a fan of the series and I'm happy to have the book for the art, but I would never suggest it for the content. The fan-run wiki (which is mentioned in the thanks section) is far more accurate and complete.

Beautiful book and artwork
Format: Hardcover
The book comes within a slip case so it remains undamaged, and the open spine makes it really comfortable to hold and look through. There is a lot of gorgeous artwork of characters' different armor and dye variations, and the landscape works are very moody and atmospheric. There's also a lot of storyboarding, menu mockups, and promo pieces. There is a little too much white space around the images, but at least it keeps the format consistent.

Beautiful Book with Surprising Extra Details
Format: Hardcover
If you, or someone you know, is a fan of this game there will be no disappointment in this purchase. I bought 3 different 'Game Art' books for 3 of my nephews this Christmas and this one far surpassed the others in detail and overall unboxing experience. The extra sleeve of the book along with the Japanese style spine binding are just some of the details that set this one apart. You can tell that a lot of the creative passion from the game was translated to this book's aesthetic. This is brand awareness done right! Note: The other 2 books were for 'Apex Legends & Last of Us 2' and they were great as well, but this one stood out and they were essentially all the same price.

Beautiful and high quality book, highly recommended for Ghost fans
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I pre ordered this the day they went live, knowing I would not be disappointing. I wasn't. The slipcase that comes with it is sturdy and protects the book well. The book itself is quality and has a great spine that lets you set the book down, and will keep the page open without you needing to hold it, which is a common issue with books. The art itself is gorgeous, sometimes spanning pages. There is commentary and notes from 2 great people from SUcker Punch Productions: Jason Connell and Andrew Goldfarb, providing insight in to the development process of Ghost of Tsushima. Much to my surprise, there is even a whole chapter dedicated to the upcoming co-op expansion to the game, Ghost of Tsushima: Legends. I am supremely happy with my purchase.
