Watch all of them to really get a feel for the setting, then buy the enovels for the setting on Amazon.
I reading the first one and so far it entertaining.

Just noticed that MtG site has 2 Ravnica based products coming out as well, one in October and January. Sorry if this has already been mentioned. Cross branding in effect for both.
Is there an active MtG board to see what those people are posting about the D&D setting book?
I'm a bit surprised that games (both tabletop and computer) seem to be so bad at writing worlds, when there are so many great fantasy authors out there that do so well at it.
So for a non magic the gathering fan who knows nothing about Ravinca, what can longer term fans suggest DM's can expect in terms of crunch, I'm thinking specifically of DM's like me who tend to never play in an established setting but love cannibalizing anything they get their hands on. Classes? Races? Monsters? Items?
Wizards certainly seem to be on a urban kick ATM. I wonder if that is on purpose? Whilst developing city stuff, how about we do this, sort of thing. Seems that these new FR adventures are set in a city - I wonder if there will be notes for adapting to Ravnica or Sharn. If not, I am sure they will emerge. (Ans yes, I understand Eberron is more than a city, but the DMsGuild thing looks to be focussing on Sharn, so that is essentially 4 Wizards books based upon urban adventure).
Seems to be the case or something close to it. I wouldn't be surprised if a D&D designer ran Dragonheist through their own Ravnica or Eberron game first and then adapted it to Waterdeep only to make the higher ups happy.
