    It is good to see someone else see through the lies. There is a big difference between actual and adaptation. I didn't read this book because it has nothing to do with the finale. Thank god for that. Also thank god that someone gets it!!

    Except that one.

    Anyway,I agree.There are some things in the book that are pretty hard to believe.I won't say because it is against the rules but I've played 2 Avatar games.The first based off of the Season 1 finale.And it wasn't like it much.And The Burning Earth skipped some episodes and made things happen differently.Plus there is a series of books called The Earth Kingdom Chronicles based of Season 2.I read the Katara one and they skipped the Avatar State episode.

    u know the interview that is in the book? if u look at it none of the answers from mike and bryan sound...like them. other interviews are so different from the interview in this book. mike and bryan sound really careful as to not give out spoilers, but in this, they're so careless! they sound rude, apethetic, and just not them. very strange... i have a link to the interview. ask if u want to see it.

    Probably because the series is over they no longer care about spoiler, you have to remember that the finale was suppose to come out months ago, right before the book. And besides Nick would be sued if it weren't really them, so to all the Zutarians, get over yourselves.

    by who? Bryke? no. There had to be a contract in there or something regarding the book. And Nick owns Avatar, so they can do what they want with it.
