Please, check a sentence for an error

Overall the novel got its point across. The history behind Illal and how it became infected with the Hawken Virus was made clear. It wasn't a bad book; it just wasn't entirely my style. I definitely think that those interested in Hawken the game would find the back story enlightening. Although to be interested in the graphic novel I don't think that it would only be those who know of the game and if it looks like you type of thing definitely pick it up.

I'd like to know whether the writer have mistakenly left out "for" before "those."
Thank you in advance for your help.

The last sentence is badly structured. Inserting "for" does not fix it. You can say: However, I don't think that the graphic novel is only for those who know of the game.

I'd like to know whether in your corrected version, "your type of" modifies "thing."
