As absorbing as the Meyer novels themselves, "Twilight and Philosophy": Gives you a new perspective on "Twilight" characters, storylines, and themes Helps you gain fresh insights into the "Twilight "novels and movies Features an irresistible combination of vampires, romance, and philosophy "Twilight and Philosophy" is a must-have companion for every "Twilight" fan, whether you're new to the series or have followed it since the beginning.
