Adventure Time: The Enchiridion & Marcy's Super Secret Scrapbook!!!

I bought two of these, and I'm glad I did! My Goddaughter and I both love Adventure Time with a special love for the vampire queen Marceline. Adventure Time has gone to great lengths to craft a fun background history between Marceline and the Ice King, and I can't wait to learn more about the two of them. In short, Marcy was a small child, lost and alone amidst the debris of a world catastrophe when a kindly scientist by the name of Simon Petrakoff finds and adopts her. They travel together, and this is when Marcy notices that her friend carries a large gold crown with him. Whenever danger occurs, Simon puts the crown on his head, and he gains the power to control cold and snow and ice, but doing so, it steals away his memories and his sanity, making him cackle and laugh maniacally as he utterly vanquishes the attackers. Each time he uses the crown, he loses more and more of his self and his control, and Marcy begs him not to use it, but survival calls for it over and over. Finally, Simon decides that Marcy would be better off without his growing insanity, and he leaves her, both of them in tears over the parting. The relationship between the two has delightful elements of father and daughter, as well as older and younger siblings/playmates, and as years go by, Simon's personality totally disappears and he becomes the irascible and sometimes very silly Ice King, while she has matured into a snarky teen vampire girl who plays guitar and sometimes makes bad decisions. Ice King still loves her, and it shows in things he writes from time to time, like the song "Just You and Me Against the World". Marcy cries for him sometimes, remembering how kindly he was, and how much she misses the person he used to be. This book is actually two books together. The Enchiridion (a handbook for adventurers!) ,and then flip the book over, and it becomes Marcy's diary and notebook, filled with her thoughts and songs she considers private biz. Both are chock full of Adventure Time lore and characters and is the perfect gift to give to a youngster of either gender. I look forward to reading mine with my Goddaughter, and we will laugh at who remembers things or gets to the end of a chapter first!

This book can get a little pricey, but believe me when I say it's worth every penny. Incredibly informative and entertaining. Slightly more on the mature and/or dark side. And it seems like the popular opinion is that this book is canon. The show contradicts itself more than this book contradicts the show, tbh... and there is a TON of major, major potential lore information in here. All I can say is if you are interested enough in the show to searching for extraneous content like these official books, you NEED to check this out.

A must have for adventure time fans, even if you don't like cooking. It pays homage to some of the most memorable meals in the show, and that alone is worth the buy. So far I've made the bacon pancakes recipe and it was really fun to do with my family, and most important of all tasty! There's something in here for everyone, and the recipes themselves are easy to modify as you please.

Awesome

I never write reviews for books on Amazon but holy freakin crap - i had to for this one. This book messed me up. Not only is it an amazing companion to the series - it's just an AWESOME book by itself, even if you've never seen a single episode. The writing, the art, the sidebar comments - holy cow is this book amazing. I am buying a second copy to make my own edits for my bestie who also watches the show, as if I've added my magical scrapbook of our friendship too :) Why haven't you bought this book yet??

Bough this for my child who has a hyperfixation on Adventure Time. It did not disappoint. Book arrived in prefect condition, and much faster than expected. For days now, my kiddo has been flapping their little arms and bopping around the house with bursts of excitement, all happy stims as they make their way through the book! Highlight of our holiday. The artwork is gorgeous, BTW. My kid is turning me into a fan.

The corners of the book and the spine were all damaged. The book is still readable, just kinda sucks because I was planning on displaying it.

I actually cried when I opened up the box. It is PERFECT! Thumbing through the pages, it offers so much great content, and really expands on the lore behind Ooo and Adventure Time. Any Adventure Time fan NEEDS this in their collection. I will cherish this forever. As someone who meddles in the esoteric, I REALLY appreciated the 2nd book in the Enchridion “for wizards only”. Truly a very well thought out and put together book for True fans of the series :)

Me sentia indeciso por el hecho de que vienen los dos libros en uno, hubiera preferido los dos por separado, de hecho lo compré pensando en el famoso Enchiridion de la serie ¿qué fanático de la serie no quisiera poseer una copia del Enchiridion? y no decepciona, es ingenioso y de gran calidad de contenido y material. Pero lo que no me esperaba es lo hermosamente conmovedor que es el libro de notas de Marcy, simplemente genial. A pesar de que como ya dije que los hubiera querido por separado, la calidad y hermoso contenido de ambos libros hacen que uno fácilmente pueda pasar por alto este "problema".

Not the cheapest however there is a depth of quality here, the clarity of the print and images are excellent as is the book construction. Not an AT fan myself but the young one really enjoyed the read and still picks it up from time to time.

冒険の書とマーシーの日記が半分ずつになってます。 貴重な情報も満載で作りも凝っているのですが上級者向きの内容です。 アニメのマーセリンが好きでイラストや設定資料的なものを想像して購入するとお値段の割に期待はずれかも。 キャラの設定資料やアートが見たい方ならアートブックの方がおすすめです。

Admitamos que es una pena que solo lo editen en ingles. Pero si eres fan te dara igual. Me parecio muy original el hacer un dos en uno con el libro. Que la mitad sea el enchiridion y la otra mitad el diario de marcy. Una vez en mis manos he de decir que no desiluciona en nada. Tiene cosas muy interesantes sobre la historia de marcy que ya solo por eso, si eres fan, deberias tener este libro en casa. En cuanto al libro en si tapa dura con contraportada protectora. La impresion y la calidad del papel excelente

The quality of the book is more than I expected. Even at a glance one could tell that this is 100% original. The only issue I have is that it was packed in just a paper envelope.
