"A rich and detailed tome...an exemplary tome, too. While most Making Of books tend to focus on the visual side and omit all-important text, here there are plenty of quotes, as well as artists credits for each and every image. There s even a nifty app available...something that makes a good book even better."--Imagine FX
"For animation fans...this book is a real treat." --The Huffington Post
"We ve talked a lot about how art of books fall slightly short of expectation every time but this one finally nails it.

Here is a look behind the frozen fjords and ice caves of Berk at the making of the sequel to a beloved animated classic. This full-color, lavishly illustrated book features more than 650 paintings, drawings, sketches, models, film stills, lighting studies, color keys, story boards, and photographs. Along with quotes from all the principal filmmakers there is also an introduction by the writer/director Dean DeBlois and a foreword by Gerard Butler, the voice of Stoick.
In this brilliantly conceived sequel, we are on a journey of exploration to new lands, four-winged dragons, long-lost love, vicious and powerful enemies, and ginormous Bewilderbeasts.
How does a movie of such imagination and magnitude come into creation? Well, you begin with an incredibly talented team of artists, writers, engineers, animators, modelers, and tech wizards and you let their creativity soar. The result is a stunning, original vision--bigger, better, and fiercer than ever--of an earth-shattering, fire-breathing sequel to the legendary story of Vikings and dragons in the frozen north.
Hold on to your dragons, fans and friends, you're in for the ride of a lifetime!
