The book also covers, unlike The Book of Atrus, the life of a D'ni noble, Aitrus, from his youth up to the point where he marries Ti'ana and has a child, Gehn (Atrus's father). The first part of the book focuses on life of Atrus' grandfather Aitrus with his parents Kahlis and Tasera, and then on Aitrus' meeting with Ti'ana (Anna). Set in the fictional D'ni Universe based on the popular computer game Myst, Book of Ti'ana details the origins of Atrus's family. The Book of Ti'ana is the second novel of the Myst series, but chronologically comes first. The final scenes take place in Riven where he encounters Catherine. Later, Atrus' first writing and study of the Art appears. The book's main character is Atrus, following him throughout his birth and early youth with his grandmother Anna, and then through the meeting with his father Gehn. The book provides a lot of background information on the D'ni and the persons of the games. After David Wingrove's reworking of the novel it was published in 1995. However the publisher Hyperion wanted a published author to work on the book so David Wingrove re-wrote the story with the help of Richard VanderWende, Rand and Robyn Miller. The Book of Atrus is the first book in the Myst series of novels, set in the same universe as the Myst computer games by Cyan Worlds, and was written by Ryan Miller in 1994.
