The first unauthorized look behind one of the top three video game franchises of all time, Final Fantasy

The Final Fantasy universe is packed with compelling characters and incredible story lines. In this book, you'll take a fascinating look at the deeper issues that Final Fantasy forces players to think about while trying to battle their way to the next level, such as: Does Cloud really exist (or should we really care)? Kefka is one of most infamous villains in all of Final Fantasy, but is he really insane? Shouldn't Moogles have equal rights?

As Mages, Moogles, fiends, and Kefka are mashed together with the likes of Machiavelli, Marx, Foucault, and Kafka, you'll delve into crucial topics such as the three major moral theories, nihilism, madness, environmental ethics, shintoism, the purpose of life, and much more.
