Fictional guidebook

Some fictional universes feature useful guidebooks which assist the hero and friends through difficult situations.

Features of a great fictional guidebook: Such books are ideally compact enough to carry on even the most strenuous adventures, yet detailed enough to contain exactly the information the reader needs at that particular point in the plot. Many guidebooks are electronic in nature; some can access relevant information through a wireless connection.
