Summary: 4 Stars
This book really is a fantastic collection of photos taken over the course of the making of Seasons 1-5. If you're a hardcore 24 fan then you will really appreciate this book. The book is divided into the five seasons and has some great behind-the-scenes looks at the cast and crew, along with some great little chunks of insight from (usually) Jon Cassar about how they crafted the stories, characters, sets, etc. . The bonus Production Design and Making 24 chapters are excellent as they have more information about the process of creating the show.
My only gripe with this book is that it is so heavily focused on the photos, and I would have preferred a little more information about the behind-the-scenes. The bonus "Behind The Scenes" DVD is a 7-minute mini-doco with Jon Cassar explaining how the idea for the book came about.
If you can't get enough of 24, and love seeing beautifully captured behind the scenes photos, then you need to buy this book. If, however, you are looking for an in-depth read on the making of the show, you might want to reconsider.
