Joss Whedon's cult sci-fi Western series Firefly may
have had a curtailed existence on TV, but it has since become
a phenomenon on DVD, spawning the hit movie Serenity
and inspiring legions of dedicated fans, whose numbers are
still growing today. This, the first of two lavishly illustrated
official companions, is a must, whether you're already a loyal
Browncoat, or just discovering the 'Verse...
Firefly:
The Official Companion - Volume One contains
176 full colour glossy pages and is a must own collection
for Firefly/Serenity
fans.
In
all honesty, this is not your run-of-the-mill Companion
book. The majority of the text is made up of scripts from
several of the episodes. I've never been a huge fan of script
books but, to be honest, that's not a real problem here as
there are so many illustrations that you don't feel like you
are flicking through a dry script collection. In fact the
title is a little misleading - it's really a script book with
tons of other information thrown in for good measure.
It's
a good solid book that you can easily dip in and out of without
feeling the need to read from cover to cover.
There
are fairly lightweight interviews with all the cast as well
as key members of the crew - there's nothing here that most
fans won't already know. However, the end result is a nice
coffee table edition that will take pride of place in any
serious fans collection.
Titan
have done an amazing job on the presentation side of things
- turning an okay book into something that looks and feels
better than it actually is.
