Book 2: Earth, Vol. 1 Avatar the Last Airbender: Book 2 Earth, Volume 1 finds Aang, the Avatar and potential reconciler of a world divided into air, earth, water, and fire kingdoms, now a master Waterbender. That means he and companions Katara and Sokka can now leave the Northern Water Tribe and concentrate on mastering earth. New adventures and dangers await the heroic trio in the five episodes included on this DVD, which finds Aang experiencing nightmares about the power of the Avatar State. He also meets an earth kingdom general with plans for attacking the warrior tribes of the fire nation, gets trapped with possible love interest Katara in the Cave of Two Lovers, and gets pulled into a supernatural swamp by a tornado. As always, Avatar is above average as an engaging anime tale, with a wonderfully original storyline and striking artistry. --Tom Keogh
Book 2: Earth, Vol. 2 The five chapters in Avatar the Last Airbender: Book 2 Earth, Volume 2 continue the story of young avatar Aang's adventures deep within the Earth Kingdom. As usual, each episode is a seamless blend of grave drama and comic relief, but the stakes seem higher than ever with the addition of a new member to Aang's team. Joining Katara and Sokka is Toph, a blind but powerful earthbending girl trying to obscure her aristocratic origins by defeating large, scary men in the ring. Aang recognizes Toph from his vision of an earthbending teacher, whom he needs to help him master control over the earth element. Toph also adds a kind of sardonic, tart tone to Aang's journey, ultimately leaving her world to join the series’ trio of young heroes. 'The Blind Bandit' finds Aang, Katara, and Sokka working hard at convincing Toph to help their mission. 'Zuko Alone' carries on the tale of the firebending prince who now travels alone and anonymously, but comes close to befriending a boy in an Earth Kingdom town. (The episode is full of interesting flashbacks from Zuko’s youth.) 'The Chase' also concerns Zuko’s past, but is primarily about Aang, Katara, and Sokka adjusting to Toph’s somewhat self-centered presence on the team at the same time Princess Azula is relentlessly hunting them all down in a kind of speeding tank. 'Bitter Work' finds Toph having difficulties training Aang, while 'The Library' is an exotic episode about a professor who leads the crew to a library containing information useful against the Fire Nation. When they get there, they find the place guarded by the owl-like Wan Shi Tong, who begins sinking the library in defense against the perceived invaders. --Tom Keogh
Book 2: Earth, Vol. 3 Avatar the Last Airbender: Book 2 Earth, Volume 3 covers chapters 11 through 15 in the ongoing saga of Aang, the 12-year-old reincarnation of an avatar destined to reunite the warring nations of fire, earth, water, and air. Still traveling with his friends Katara, Sokka, and newcomer Toph, Aang gets into some of the strangest and most compelling situations yet seen on his journey to master control over all four elements. The first story, 'The Desert,' finds Aang so upset over the abduction and criminal sale of his flying bison, Appa, that the powerful boy shows a streak of rage, demonstrating to himself that he could easily use his emerging skills to harm enemies if he wished. Still, Appa remains missing through this volume, leading the gang on a mission to survive a desert sojourn and survive during a perilous flight (with a young family in tow) over a pass through mountains and ocean in 'The Serpent’s Pass.' They also get involved in a bizarre fight (in 'The Drill') against the Fire Nation army and its gigantic drill, which is aimed at the outer wall of Ba Sing Se, a city occupied by earth people. Once inside Ba Sing Se, however, things get really weird: smiling officials (in 'City of Walls and Secrets') outlaw any discussion of the war outside in order to keep the population placid and the economy rolling. Finally, 'Tales of Ba Sing Se' is an original piece made up of individual vignettes focusing on each of the major characters. If there is anything surprising about Book 2 Earth, Volume 3, it’s the amount of romance (kissing, even!) in the air. These Avatar boys and girls are growing up. --Tom Keogh
Book 2: Earth, Vol. 4 The long journey of young Avatar Aang and his friends Katara, Sokka, and Toph continues in this dramatic installment in the Avatar the Last Airbender series. Picking up from Volume 3, the first chapter on this disc, 'Appa’s Lost Days,' traces the hard times of Aang’s winged bison, Appa, after the latter is stolen in order to blackmail Aang into not going to the Earth King with information about a pending coup. The clever Aang manages to find Appa anyway and complete his crucial mission, though he learns, in 'The Earth King,' that the sheltered monarch doesn’t buy the notion that his own counsel, the power-grasping Long Feng, could be behind such a conspiracy. Complicating matters is the arrival of Princess Azula to take control over forces loyal to Long Feng, while Zuko, the reformed Fire Nation prince now acting as a humble but happier servant to his wise, tea-drinking uncle, is powerless to stop her. (On the other hand, Zuko forms an unexpected bond with one of Aang’s allies.) Everything comes to a head in 'The Crossroads of Destiny,' in which Aang, suddenly confused by the sage advice of a guru who tells him he must free himself of a crucial emotional attachment, joins the others in an uphill effort to stop Azula from overtaking the Earth King. As engaging and frequently funny as every other volume in the Avatar series, Volume Four is a great ride through a climactic time in the long-running story. --Tom Keogh

Rating: - "the kid who bends air without any hair"
great story. great characters. fun animation. good for kids and adults.
what's not to like?
Rating: - Brilliant!
I'm 39 years old with NO children, and I am so hooked on this series!
Season 2 focuses on Aang's continuing struggle to master the elements in preparation of defeating the Fire Lord before the comet comes and makes all fire-benders nearly unbeatable.
The character development really keeps me intrigued with the storyline (along with the NEW characters this season), and I cannot wait for season 3 (even though it means the end of the series).
Highly recommended!
Rating: - For Avatar Fans everywhere
Fantastic set! It is really nice to watch Avatar without all the stupid..and I mean stupid commercials. The shows were what were advertised and the extras were quite interesting.
Rating: - The tense middle section to an all time great series
I don't want to spoil any of this honest to God amazing series, so I won't mention any particulars. The grand story of Avatar is nothing we havn't seen before; A hero thought lost for a century returns to find that the world has been unbalanced and an evil empire is on the brink of total world domination. He is not ready to restore the balance, however, for he is merely a young and inexperienced incarnation of this hero, The Avatar, that has been eternally standing watch over the world and should once again, if Aang can get it together. Although the story may sound familiar the execution is brilliant. The entire premise of different cultures being able to manipulate different elements is genius, and the blending of eastern martial arts is done beautifully as well as adding an an action packed flair to the series. The characters are also deep and well developed, and you really get to know them, even the ones that don't speak. I was truly heartbroken when this series ended, because it had given me many good years of entertainment. As far as american made animes go, this is probably one of if not the best, but it's also accessible to people of all types and ages. WATCH THIS SHOW!
Rating: - One of the best follow-ups Ever!
What a fantastic follow up for that classic first season.
This is a MUST see series!. The cross-generational appeal of 'Avatar' is probably one of the best we have seen in a very long time.
Absolute masterpiece! 5 STARS!
