Dated, but Useful
Considering the chronic lack of commercially published trueSpace materials, this book could be seen as a welcome enough (if slightly dated) supplement to Frank Rivera's Inside trueSpace 4. You might however want to purchase Frank's book before getting this one.

IT'S ABOUT TIME!
Creating disaster has never been more beautifully simple. Any True Space user will appreciate this comprehensive guide to burning, steaming, freezing and completely annihilating any object under the sun. It's a must-have for any animator who allows their destructive imagination to go wild. Also, for any True Space beginners, this book demonstrates all the capabilities and possibilities of the program with the included plug-ins. This is a great find! Cuts out all the dull excess and gets straight to the cool effects.

Not quite sure why anyone would NOT like this book!
I'm not quite sure why a small number of the reviewers didn't like the book - I found it to be a facsinating introduction into the world of special effects, and as what I'd consider a bonus, detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to create them using trueSpace, a program I never thought was good for much more than simple 3D stills and even simpler animation. Boy, was I glad to be proven wrong! ANYONE with an interest in advanced 3D or special effects animation should DEFINITELY pick this book up - it's worth much more than the cover price as far as I'm concerned. Buy it!
