Book Reviews of Firefly: The Official Companion: Volume Two
Book Review: Shiny!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the follow-up and completion of companion books to the cancelled-but-still-growing-its-fanbase Firefly television series. It provides the shooting scripts ans photo stills from the remaining episodes, as well as numerous sidebars featuring backstories and insights into the actors, crew, props, and the inner thoughts of series' creator, Joss Whedon. This glossy volume is heavily laden with color photographs, costume concept designs for the various characters, and pre-production sketches. If you have a love for the series and the Big Damn Movie ("Serenity"), you will feel compelled to buy this book.Book Review: Shun-SHENG duh gao-WAHN!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just bought this to do my part to get a sequel to Serenity, but it's incredibly funny, interesting, and informative on what I consider the best TV show I've ever seen (and I've seen every episode of CSI: Miami).
The menagerie of great phots and interviews with the actors, Greg Edmundson, Shawna Trptic, etc., not to mention Whedon himself are extremely entertaining.
My celebricrush on Summer Glau is now official.
Book Review: An Outstanding Look Behind the Scenes.
Summary: 5 Stars
This second edition of the companion is every bit as good as the first. I've thoroughly enjoyed both of them. If you enjoyed going into Whedon's verse, you will love these companions. The scripts have scenes in them that didn't make it on screen, there are great interviews with the cast, directors, producers... it's a lot of fun. I highly recommend this book along with the first companion.Book Review: Browncoats Unite!!
Summary: 5 Stars
A must-have for fans (Browncoats) of the Firefly TV series or Serenity movie. Very high quality, glossy publication with lots of great photos, behind the scenes info, interviews, and word-for-word dialog of each episode. Both volume one and volume two are excellent values. They are well designed and made, great graphics.Book Review: A Great Companion
Summary: 5 Stars
For anyone charmed by the short-lived Firefly series, this book is simply great. Besides having the screenplays of the programs in the second half of the series, it is full of pictures, interviews, storyboards, and various tidbits relating to the series. If there is a school for Browncoats, this should be required reading.
