In the original [[Myst (game)|Myst]] and [[Riven (game)|Riven]], [[Book#Trap Books|Trap Book]]s were described as Linking Books with subtly altered text, so as to trap the user inside the Link. This was a major factor in Riven's "good" ending. Trap Books were soon ''retconned'' as being actual links to [[Prison Age]]s, which is key to the events of ''Revelation''. Some fans have regarded this retcon as an unnecessary complication, in that when Atrus destroyed the red and blue books on [[Myst|Myst Island]], Sirrus and Achenar then traveled to their intended ages rather than remaining trapped in the link. In Myst IV however, neither brother recalls being trapped mid-link, although both of them seem to recognize the Stranger immediately. | In the original [[Myst (game)|Myst]] and [[Riven (game)|Riven]], [[Book#Trap Books|Trap Book]]s were described as Linking Books with subtly altered text, so as to trap the user inside the Link.
