 Rating: - Very Good Stuff I was holding off trying to form an opinion on wether this book would be worth buying as I am a frequent visitor to the BDB website. It's quite true that 99% of what is in this book is already on the Site and for free - so unless you live/eat/breath BDB, probably not. However free web stuff is not the same as having the material at your bedside and available 24/7. I love dipping in and out of the books and reading favourite chapters, this is great for that because it's in small sections. There was also still quite a bit I'd missed whilst caught up in the rollercoaster rides that are the Novels. This book really fleshed some bits out for me - like Lassiter for instance and it's great getting JR's take on where ideas and words etc came from. Also, purely as a marketing tool, the tiny excerpt from Revh's book (not due until May 09 -and what's the betting that gets pushed back); is a real appetite wetter. Not much info there other than Revh's Lady looks to be called Ehlena - (here's hoping she's as feisty a girl as Kelley Armstrong's Elena Michaels) a nurse at Haver's clinic where Revh's becoming a regular visitor because his continuing drug use is causing problems. I can't wait! Like many Fans I presume, my absolute favourite Brother is Z, and the Novella which opens the book is totally heartrending. I actually shed a tear, I kept wanting to reach out and hug him, not that he'd have allowed it! Zsadist's struggle with the reality of what impact his past could have on his Daughter's future and how this affects his relationship with her now, is heartrending. He and Bella have worked so hard to form a rock-solid relationship but both he and his Shellan have had to adjust to so much in such a short time; can they adjust some more? They're a threesome with so much baggage and Z realises he's still got a lot to unload. He comes to realise that if the physical reminders cannot be erased, he has to yet again go out on a limb, open himself to all the pain and deal with the emotional, the determination and strength of purpose he shows is nothing short of heroic. The story really sums up for me what is important in life. The BDB may have money, flash cars and huge houses but you can do without them, loving family and being at peace within yourself are the foundations of life. Rating: - Great companion to the first six books of The Black Dagger Brotherhood series -a treat for Z fans,This is, in my opinion, an essential guide for fans of The Black Dagger Brotherhood series, even those who have become disillusioned with the direction of the more recent books. The novella with Zsadist and Bella alone is worth the price. And add to that tons of information about each of the six brothers, all neatly gathered, right at your finger tips. A great guide to keep along with all your other brother books. Its sure to please any fan. The Insider's Guide includes- *82 page novella about Zsadist, Bella and Nalla (covers the birth and months afterward concentrating on Zsadist's adjustment to fatherhood) * The Brother's stats (age, weight, eyes etc), personal questions answer sheet (e.i. fav TV show, what do you fear most?, most romantic thing you've ever done), and Ward's personal 'interview' with each brother *Writer's guide -for those who want to know about breaking into the publishing business Ward gives some advice. Also included is the proposal for the brotherhood series that was sent through her agent to publishers. *Deleted scenes -your absolutely going to love this if your Z fan *sigh* *Kicks and Giggles -interesting quotes from each of the books *Brother's on the board (that's Ward's discussion board) -imagine if-you-will that the brother's are regular posters on a discussion board this is what they write about themselves and others (they tease each other unmercifully)-some very funny scenes! Also includes Phury and Cormia's mating ceremony. *Slices of life -little vignettes that Ward posted on the board about the brothers. Includes Movie Night, Wrath and the Letter Opener, In the Nature of Phury, and The Interview That Never Happened. *Question and answer with Ward *Time Line of the Brotherhood *Table of abbreviations (i.e. -BTW) *Picture of what the old language looks like *The Brotherhood's Interview *In Memoriam -Wellsie and Ward talk *Excerpt -Lover Avenged (Rhev's book) Recommended for fans of Wrath, Rhage, Butch, Vishous, Phury and especially Zsadist (I got mine book marked already!). Chock full of great stuff that I found touching and laugh-out-loud funny. It really helped me define the characters that I thought I knew so well already. I fell in love with these guys all over again! ***Not for anyone new to the series. You should read all the books first -major spoilers otherwise.
