The book is filled with every bitty bit of info a fan could ask for. Every significant and semi-major character (e.g., Juliet and Karl) gets at least one cover-to-cover page on them (two total if you're as picky as I am with numbers). Every plot point gets at least one cover-to-cover page. This includes Locke's weapons and Mr. Cluck's Chicken Shack. Loads of blown-up picks to show every detail of almost every micrometer of everything; journals, photographs, records, maps, posters, etc. Behind the scenes commentary and notes on everything relevant about everything/everyone. All that, and it's alphabetized! I'm having fun going through the show again with this besides me.
That being said it is driving me Crazy as to the COVER PHOTO. I know all the characters, know backstroke and I cannot say with certainty who is pictured between Desmond Hume & Sun Kwon. It has to be Eloise Hawking or Cassidy maybe? (Not Nikki as Paulo isn't pictured) - maybe Cindy? I have tried to google it and failed to find an answer on google, Lostpedia, or even the book itself??? Help? :-) All other characters are accounted for and cannot think of one that would be nestled between 2 main original characters.
Well.., i am abit shock on its size when i received it, coz, it's huge like a file holder, which is atleast 2 times bigger than a magazine, and heavy like two stack of dictionaries...
So.., it's not a usual book that you can keep in ordinary space in your bookshelf, as i had to re-arrange on my books on the shelf just for it.
Also.., it's not convenient to read if you want to hold it, it meant to read on the reading table.
As for the content, i am satisfy, because it has lots of information on locations, characters, items, etc, well done for getting those information all together in one book.
But, the index and arrangement is abit.., messy, i have to say.
Overall, it's still a great collection for any LOSTIE, great images, and stories, everything in the book will bring you back the memories of the island. :)
{Title: Lost Encyclopedia | Author: Tara Bennett, Paul Terry | Hardcover: 404 pages | Publisher: DK Publishing | Language: English | ISBN-10: 0756665949 |ISBN-13: 978-0756665944}
I noticed that the book is sorely lacking in the area of indexing. It's hard to believe that a bona fide indexer did this one. It appears to be hastily done by someone who doesn't know indexing.
This is one of those books I enjoy thumbing through just for the memories of a show I love.
It's on my coffee table with a collection of some other books. I'm hoping, also, that another and better edition will surface one day soon and pleasantly surprise us. Despite its errors, it's still a nice book for remembering a great television show and that's why I gave it four stars, because I like it rather than love it.
This book is pretty incredible. If you like Lost you will NOT be disappointed with this resource. It's a great conversation piece and it's worth having. The in depth information, pictures, and trivia are impressive.
The forward by the writers of the show talk about how all the extra information surrounding the show provide the 90% of the 'iceberg' under the surface, and if you want to know way more than you ever thought about the Lost universe, this will give it to you.
After watching the series to the end, I've really enjoyed reading the "Lost Encyclopedia". Great pictures and illustrations. Insights and relevancies I missed while watching the DVDs. Reminders of parts I liked. This is a good hardcover book full of photos.
Happy Reader

It is definitely a must-have item for any fans of the show. The attention to detail is breath-taking and you will find yourself saying "oh I remember that bit" or "I remember that person". The book evokes fond memories of the show and will most likely make you want to start watching it all over again.
Without an episode guide, I cannot rate the book as a 5* perfect book.... but it's not far off...
