I am just reading the trilogy for the first time (I know and I'm sorry) and was given the atlas at the same time. It is excellent and having the maps infront of me has really helped me understand what's going on and what's the big deal. I'd say a must for first timers and die hard fans alike.
I agree. I have read of some geologists who have studied polar ice caps to depths which were around at the begigning of the last ice age. They believe that the current climate changes are just the beginging of the next ice age, which by the way is well overdue. Believe the global warming phenomenon or not, there is not enough hard scientific evidence either way.
