24: The Ultimate Guide

This is a great collectors item for any fan of the show. First, the book is written as if it is a non-fictional guide to CTU. There are lots of details about all major characters and info about characters who didn't last or live long. This guide features everything from long recaps of all 6 days to detailed information about weapons and vehicles used. There were many times when I would stop and say "I forgot that happened on that day" or "I forgot that girl from Rosanne was in this". Michael Goldman gives us a well written and informative companion to the show that reminds us of why we got hooked in the first place. Well worth the purchase.

"24: THE ULTIMATE GUIDE" es un excelnete libro que te guia sin mayor esfuerzo, a traves de las laberinticas tramas de las primeras seis temporadas de la ultrafamosa serie "24". Lleno de datos interesantes y resumenes bien redactados, acompañados de muchisimas fotos y diagramas a full color, encontraras aqui los momentos claves de cada "dia", ademas de los profiles de los perosnajes principales; la infame galeria de villanos y "topos"; los caidos en accion de CTU; las armas, tácticas y locaciones usados en la serie. Imprescindible para todos los fans de la serie, pero un serio peligro para los no iniciados, pues este libro es un gran y maravilloso SPOLIER para ellos. Bravo!!

terrific companion to the show - answers alot of questions and gives many interesting tidbits as well as pictures!

I have the season companion guide "24: The Ultimate Guide" by Michael Goldman, $24.99 US, Hardcover, coffee table size (12" x 10"), which covers all 6 Days/Seasons. I wanted to take this opportunity to say to all 24 fans considering this book: I love it! I leave it on my living room table, and people check it out and it always makes them interested and starts conversations that branch into all sorts of things. The quality of the pages and pictures is outstanding. The visual appeal of the book could not be better - there are high quality glossy photos that are just amazing. There are inset synopses called a "Fact File" for the major characters, Day/Season synopses of course, and the volume includes a plethora of inset character faces, sets, and scenes large and small. The book relates some details that cannot be derived or inferred from the DVDs, such as details of field gear and other technologies, history trivia, and of course the Fact Files on many of the characters. There is a brief enthusiastic "Welcome" to the book from Joel Surnow on page 6. This book is a very appealing and satisfying presentation of the whole 24 experience, and well worth the money paid. I would recommend it just for the pictures, even if there was no text!

24: The Ultimate Guide This collectible book is chock full of great pictures and interesting facts about 24. It makes a great companion to the Official Companion Books of each season of 24. It also is a wonderful conversation starter when properly displayed in the center of a coffee table.
