This was a super cute refresher of the series while we (im)patiently await the next season.
It was basically just information on the characters, places, creatures and magic types in the series as written in Callum's spellbook.
The only thing that got me was that after watching the show, it didn't seem like it was Callum that was writing it. The voice of the writing just sounded like a much younger person writing it than Callum.
There were a few extra informational bits and a little bit more about the more side characters that I must have missed while watching the show. I think I will rewatch the show soon and now I will have a little bit more background info!

I haven't seen Dragon Prince yet, so a lot of spoilers for me, but I don't mind. If anything, thanks to this book, I want to watch the show more, so I guess later today when I have time/am doing some fitness/exercise I will go to Netflix to watch this show, thankfully it is on the Dutch Netflix.
This is a delightful and gorgeously illustrated guide to the show. We learn about various things that happened, we read about characters (and OMG there is a sweet LGBT couple there), about elves, about the countries, the history of the land, magic, and more. It was a delight and the world seems amazing and so much fun. I just wanted to dive into the book, into the world. I can also honestly say as someone who never watched the show that this isn't a problem at all. I never felt like I should have watched the show first or know more about the characters. The writer has a way to pull you in, and the art also helps (Holy wow that is gorgeous). Recommended.

I’ve learned more about the dragon prince universe and the fact that the author put in sign language is amazing

It was good. It was really cute with beautiful illustrations. It just gave the basic information of the Dragon Prince series and the world and characters that we know. It also gave a bit more information on things we didn't know about like the other types of elves, dragons, arcanum and more. I enjoyed it.
