This second volume of Future Press’ Elden Ring – Books of Knowledge is dedicated to the many creatures that inhabit the game’s world and the arsenal of armaments you can acquire to deal with them. Every enemy and boss you’ll encounter and every armament you can find is presented with artwork and stats in a beautifully designed, premium hardcover volume.
Learning to Fight
The first chapter provides an in-depth battle primer, fully explaining all of the combat-related gameplay elements. If you want to know exactly how every aspect of the game’s combat works, look no further; we’ll show you how to excel with any play style.
The Bestiary
The Lands Between is teeming with all manner of beasts, and we don’t spare a single page dissecting and analysing them here. We present thoroughly tested combat strategies that don’t require specific items or skills and account for every play style. Learn how to overcome even the toughest of foes, from the lowliest of wretches to the Shardbearers themselves.
The Armaments
Elden Ring features an unparalleled selection of weapons, spells, armor and special abilities to experiment with― the variety on offer is dazzling. We catalogue all of them in an easy to reference format with complete stats for all upgrade levels to make working on builds a pleasure.
The Complete Package
As with Volume I, this book is designed to chronicle everything about Elden Ring and be an impeccable source of reference. Easy to pick up and read, even those who’ve already played through the game should find it full of fascinating insights. With that in mind, Volume II also includes an exclusive interview with Elden Ring’s Director, Hidetaka Miyazaki.
Premium Production
This hardcover book is manufactured using the finest papers and most durable binding process befitting of a true collector’s piece. It comes with four carefully selected art prints and a bookmark ribbon for ease of reference.

5 Stars for the book itself – 2 Stars for the battered condition it arrived in. A thin cardboard mailer is no adequate protection for such a heavy book. Should have listened to the many reviews on this page complaining about the bad condition these books arrive in.

Excellence book. Too bad Amazon don’t take care of there stock and send out damaged products – so ms y of the reviews of this product show damaged items! Really poor Amazon.

Future Press have done it again, much like the game itself the guide has no rival. The care, knowledge and application adapted for the book is a masterclass in game guides. The wait for the book is irrelevant; this is art in its truest form. Future Press if you are reading this, thank you! Now that you achieved this monumental success, please re-print the Dark Souls compendium book.

This book is amazing, full of details on combat, Bestiary info for each of the enemies (step-by-step guides which Armaments and equipment are best used. The book also shows how to achieve the various endings, and has walkthroughs for the numerous castles, dungeons etc. Paper is the semi-glossy type and there is a built in bookmark … The whole thing is a 5 stars for production quality and 5 stars for content. You also get some extra postcard of the Elden Ring world.
As you can see, I’ve given the book 5 stars because it deserves it and the content of the book should not be downmarked due to logistical issues in my opinion, but if there was also an option to rate handling/delivery it would be 0 stars. ????

Product arrive well packed, undamaged.
Delivery was slow but it was the manufacturer’s fault only.

Between this and Book 1 it has everything I think any fan would need, before the future DLC is released at least
Just to reply to another review on here stating that Book 2 has an A1 printed map inside – it doesn’t – that is included with Book 1
