Superriffic Books in a set !!!!!

I've read all of those books and none of them have ever been stupid. And now it's in a set! I wish I could have them! True Floridian Bionicle Fan

The First Three Years rolled into one!

This is the collection of the Chronicles, from Tale of the Toa, Beware the Bohrok, Makuta's Revenge, Tales of the Masks, and I do believe even the novelization of the first movie, Mask of Light. These five books in total create the 2001-2003 storylines in the Bionicle universe, which has only been seen in comics Lego Club members get, as well as online games which aren't that active anymore. For fans who have read the comics and/or flash videos from the game, etc, I still recommend this series for while it brings up some familiar tales, it brings up some entirely new ones unseen anywhere in the genre.

My Review for Bionicle Chronicles 4; Tales of the Masks

Hi. (...) This is such an awesome book! It is the first Bionicle storybook written by Greg Farshtey, the Bionicle comic writer. It has a few interesting teasers for the 2004 Metru Nui storyline. You may have noticed that this is the first five star rating I have given. It is because, this book is COMPLETELY new stuff! I mean, you've never heard it before. A very interesting ending of the Toa Nuva vs. Rahi Nui! This is the best Bionicle storybook that Greg Farshtey (writer)has ever written, being the first one.

Great stories for Bionicle fans !!

Both my 8-year-old and myself found this book very enjoyable. It was well-written. Each character has a very distinct personality of its own. [And surely one of them will fit a child's dream hero.] There are balanced mix of excitement, adventure, humor, and values. This book revealed a few facts that was unknown in the previous books, and also provided a glimpse into the upcoming storyline of Metru Nui. Sort of the way the Star Wars episodes were introduced.This whole Bionicle saga can become one of a child's great inspirations in his life. The core value of the whole story -Unity-Duty-Destiny- is very useful in parenting and raising a child. We live inThailand, a seemingly so far away place on earth, but still my son got so obsessed with this theme of Lego. I fully support him because I can see value in this whole thing.

Exciting adventures!

This is the first BIONICLE short-story collection from Scholastic, and it's a winner. Kids (or adults) who are into BIONICLE will love the action, the mystery, and even the little bits of humor in the stories. It's NOT aimed at pre-school kids, but readers 8-12 will have no problem with it. Highly recommended!
