The End and the Beginning

I love these Official Guides for the X-Files. They tell the entire episode in just enough detail if you may have missed something or have not paid enough attention. They also have the "Backstory" so you could find out information you ay never have even heard of. They have quotes from the fabulous stars. I just wish they would have had more from and about the stars. Bt other than that they are fabulous. I have my rating as 5 stars but because of this I would pick four and a half if I could. They tell everything you need to know and more about the greatest show to ever air!

I admit to being a X-Files addict, and so this was necessary to try to understand the show. It, and its previous 1 through 4, have made my interest in the X-files grow as I finally got clues and tremendous answers in reviews and stories from many missed episodes. A lot of work obviously went into these books, and I wait eagerly for volume 6.

I love this book,I especially like the behind the scenes stuff, it's great.I recommend this book to anyone who is the biggest fan in the world to the show like me.It has a great picture of David Duchovny in front of the mirror (very cute). I have almost all of season 6 on tape so it was very interesting to read the behind the scenes stuff and see how they made the episode.I have all of season 7 on tape so I can't wait for the next book to come out.I am running out of blank tapes!

This series of volumes started with the somewhat disappointing "The Truth is Out There", a book covering 2 seasons in less pages than later volumes covered 1. "Trust No One" followed for Season 3...better than the first volume in comprehensiveness, but nowhere near the depth afforded by "I Want to Believe" (Season 4) "Resist or Serve" (Season 5) and now this one, "The End and the Beginning" (Season 6). Andy Meisler has done the job of providing the definitive print version of the X-Files...the only materials on the X-Files enjoyable even when the power goes out and VCR's computers and DVD's are silent. These books, at very reasonable prices, are must-haves for fans of the show. For people wondering about gaps in their knowledge of the series, these books will fix the problem.

I've been waiting several months for this book to come out because I've enjoyed the other four volumes so much. This volume, though slightly late, met all of my high expectations. It gives plot synopses of all the episodes from the stellar sixth season (don't miss my favorites "Milagro" and "Triangle!") and, more interestingly, inside info on the development and filming of each episode, including trivia and funny anecdotes. There's a beautiful section of color photos in the center of this volume including a great picture of Mulder and Scully making baseball sexy :) If you're a fan of the show, trust me, you can't live without these books.
