It's a shame, but unless Pix'n Love decides to release an official English version of the book, there's nothing that we can do I think. Another reason for me to learn French so that this obstacle won't be a problem!! :)

The thing that people can do is to make detailed summaries of the book, covering all the important details and such, in your own words OR write the information in your own words. (as long as you reference).

It is not illegal to make summaries of books OR write the information from books in your own words . :) (or else the entire education system would be illegal, haha)

What is the new information from the book? Isn´t the new info on RayWiki already? (Info; I am not referring to images)

So I just got the book and I’ve been looking at it. I’ve seen a lot of really interesting things in it! Loads of concept art I’ve never seen before. Sadly my French isn’t tres good so I’ve had to translate a bit :oops2:

This is incorrect, right? I thought Cielle and the livingstones and robo-pirates were from Phoenix Interactive's version of Rayman 4 that was cancelled in 2005?

Excuse me, but does anyone here have the artbook that came with the Collector's Edition of this book? If so, could you please shed some light on the artworks in it? They aren't anywhere online, for somewhat understandable reasons, but I've been dying to see them for years. Since that book of Legends concept art literally doesn't exist anymore, let alone isn't for sale - and I couldn't get my hands on it because I didn't even know what Rayman was when the artbook came out - I don't know if there is a way to know what those concepts were. I'll even take text descriptions of them at this point.
