It is just plain fun to flip through the the pages of this 'employee handbook'. Designed to be a fictional guide for a new Abstergo employee (hired to research Arno Dorian & his life), it pops with photographs, inserts and information that will keep you turning the pages. The first section details exactly what you'd expect in a new employee handbook for Abstergo Industries (aka The Templar Order). The second section delves a little more deeply into work being done for Abstergo's Unity research. Loaded with concept art, pictures, faux pas inserts and envelopes, you get a great sense of what the Abstergo employee is seeing as he works on the project. This book reminds me of Nick Bantock's "Griffin & Sabine" series of books. While not as in depth as those books, it's still chock full of great material.Is it worth the price? As a huge fan of Assassin's Creed: Unity (closing in on 200 recorded Steam game hours), I will say most definitely, yes. I bought it used (good condition <used with some wear and tear>) but if you prefer your books 'New' , you can't go wrong paying a few more dollars. All being said, this is a great companion 'concept' book for AC: Unity.

I wish Ubisoft made more supplemental books like this!!!
I absolutely loved the way this was put together. It functions as a supplemental guide to the characters, setting, and story for Assassin's Creed Unity, but it's structured in a way that presents a coherent backstory as well! Basically, you're an Abstergo employee/Templar agent taking over the Unity project after your predecessor "lost" themselves while working on the project. I don't want to give too much away, but it's an ingenious way to approach the material.On top of that, the artwork is gorgeous, and much of it is presented in a folder structure with numerous artifacts included throughout, such as sticky notes, burned documents, and internal company memos. The whole book screams quality and I hope the people who worked on this got credit for how well this is put together. There's another similar book for Assassin's Creed called Blackbeard's Journal that is set up in the same fashion. Both books add so much extra flavor to the story!The only thing I would warn folks is that there are sections of this book that may spoil some of the events of the game. I don't think accidentally stumbling upon the spoilers will ruin the Assassin's Creed Unity game in any way, but thought it was worth mentioning, just in case that's important to you.Other than that, grab this book before it's gone or out of print! It's an excellent edition to anyone's gaming, art, or design library!

Amazing way to immerse yourself into the AC universe
I would suggest you grab this while you can, the price of this book on Amazon is obviously some sort of bug. This is one of those books that you would find in a bookstore for $40.00+It's not just a "book" either. As you flip through the pages you will find notes and cards that have been placed ON the pages like sticky notes put there from someone else. These notes are on tight enough so that you can lift them up and read what is underneath but not loose so that they would fall out.Tons and tons of colorful illustrations, a story itself running through the pages, insight into the game, extensions to the AC lore are all inside here for less than $4.00 at the time of this writing and it's not even on sale. Even if you were just a SciFi/Alt Reality enthusiast you would like this book even if you had never played Assassin's Creed.

Great addition to my library of Assassin’s Creed
Addition to my Assassin’s Creed library, it’s just another story to the world of Assassin’s Creed. Gives more detail than the games.. many pictures and information of the Abstergo facility

Great addition to the collection
Arrived perfectly and in fine condition. Although it is most relevent to the point of Assassin's Creed Unity (published in 2015), it is still has some usefull information and some reading material to all the fans out there of the Ubisoft all-time best seller, Assassin's Creed.Gotta love this.

Loved it. So happy.
I absolutely love this book. It offers great insight and more interesting way at learning and expanding your knowledge of the Assassin Creed world. It is a great book for the price, there are many need little sticky notes and letter that keep you looking for more. Not to mention that the graphics are amazing.
