Title: The Unofficial "X-Files" Companion by Bob Sherman ISBN: 0-333-72602-2 Publisher: Pan Macmillan Pub. Date: 19 September, 1997 Format: Audio Cassette |
Average Customer Rating: 4.17 (6 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Truth is stranger than fiction, and more fun too
Comment: This book dates from the end of season 2, so if you're a fan, it won't tell you much about The X-Files that you don't already know. But the real point of the book is that the synopsis of each episode jumps off into a medium-long article discussing the science and history surrounding an issue or two in that episode. There's a load of cool stuff in this book, on subjects like chromosomes, forensic science, hypnosis, various folklores, the CIA, the circus, and what might happen when you get shot in the head. It's all interesting and fun to read, and will take you right back to how exciting it was when the show was just getting started. I only wish Ms. Genge had written similar books covering the other seasons!

Summary: Great book, but know what you're buying
Comment: I purchased this book knowing what was it was: an episode by episode examination of the bizarre phenomana that is present in each X-File. If you are interested to know how much of The X Files is real and how much is fake, this is definately worth the price. There is another book that exists (I believe it is The Science of The X Files, or a similar such title) that does not even come close to how absorbing, entertaining, and informative The Unofficial Guide is. If you are looking for an episode guide, find it elsewhere. The central theme of this book is The X Files in the real world, and if you are at all interested, buying this book will be well worth the price.
