Buenos dias, seņor. Welcome to the Land of the Dead. Meet Manny Calavera--he'll be your travel agent and friendly neighborhood grim reaper during your four-year journey through this strange new world. Sound weird? Well, this is just the tip of the iceberg for LucasArts' eagerly anticipated new adventure epic, Grim Fandango. In keeping with the game's film noir atmosphere, Prima's guide to Grim Fandango is written in a narrative style. The author walks you through the entire game by telling you the story of the game. As you follow along, you'll pick up the solutions to all of the game's puzzles. The manner in which the book is written is especially helpful for habitual strategy-guide readers, who may pass too quickly over a key plot point by following a no-nonsense walkthrough too closely. With this Grim Fandango guide, however, the walkthrough is the story, so even if you follow it to the letter and play the game with your eyes firmly glued to the book (and not on the screen) you'll still absorb some of the splendor that makes Grim Fandango such an impressive, unique, and compelling gaming experience. --Michael Ryan
