I wish that more guides were like this one

If you're knee-deep into Dragon Quest and you're thinking about buying this strategy guide, don't hesitate. This is the most well constructed guide I have ever used. There weren't any big spoilers and there wasn't a 'take you by the hand because you don't know how to play games' walkthrough section.

This is a great guide. It has all of the items, most of the chest locations, extensive bestiary, great alchemy info that you can easily cross reference with other sections, and pages on the different locations with recommended level info. The illustrations are beautiful, and the format is well presented. I find myself constantly using this guide while, at the same time, feeling like I am figuring out the game for myself. People who didn't like this guide were probably looking for a little more 'hand holding.' Nothing wrong with that, but I preferred this format.

Dragon quest 8

dragon quest 8 is a game that takes a lot of time to complete but if you know what to do it is really fun. dragon quest 8 is a extremly long game i have played 123 hours and i am still not done. in this game you are screwed if you dont get alchemy recipies, this game is extremely good if you know what to do at times you wont know what to do and it will take you a long time to figure out so it might get a little anoying. overall if you do what you are suppose to and you get really far into the game it is good.
(if you ever plan on completing this game you are going to need a whole lot of time )

Not really a strategy guide.....

While this makes a nice companion of sorts, it is in no way a comprehensive strategy guide. Most of the item locations are given as "unknown..." and it doesn't even list most of the bosses. I just wish I had known all this before I bought the book, since I could have simply downloaded a decent walkthrough on Gamefaqs and saved myself $18.

Now, for some of the positives: it does give nice maps for all areas, and shows where most of the treasure is located on the overland maps, but not in towns. It has a nice section on alchemy, although it admits that there are probably some recipes that aren't covered in the book.

As much as I hated the book, my husband loved it, hence the 3 star compromise. If you just want an atlas, by all means you'll love this. I admit to wanting a little more hand-holding from my strategy guides, so I wasn't a fan.
