Book Overview
The television series The X-Files has encouraged viewers to examine their perceptions of the paranormal. This volume casts an irreverent eye over the series, discussing it with its own trademark irony. It also presents a complete episode guide, a survey of the media impact of the programme, and features on the show's nuts and bolts. It attempts to look at The X-Files in the same way as the fans do - entertaining them as well as informing them.

This is by far the best X-Files ressource available
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Together with the "X-Files and Conspircay Timeline" (availalable online), is this without doubt the most ressourceful collection of information ever published about the X-Files. This book covers the first 5 seasons and the motion picture:Every episodes is shortly described, it is put in relation with the series in general, and in more detail with the Conspiracy going on. We do get some nice soundbites of characteristic X-Files elements, ranging from "Dialogue triumphs" to "x-files politico-babble" as the authors liked to put it out. And of course, we can also read about the personal opinion of each of the three members to each episode.Their analysis of the X-Files and especially of the conspiracy is extremely accurate and detailed and revealed a lot of new elements to me and gave me a much better picture of the whole series.All in all, this book should be part of every library of an X-phile! It's much better than the official guides. Unfortunately, the authors announced in the book that there wont be a new edition to include future seasons... I still hope that they will change their opinion about that...
Fun Files for X-philes
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I found this book a blast! It got to the point that I was still reading it at 4:00 in the morning and it started making sense-gasp!- all of it. I'd entered the X-Zone. Everything an X-phile has ever thought about in her heart-of-hearts. Read it and wallow!
How did I live without it?

THE best episode guide on paper, fun, usefull, and, in one word, wonderful. THE greatest.
Phwoar!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is a must for all shippers! (You know who you are!) The episodes with shippy (is that even a word?) scenes are marked with a Phwoar! Although I have never heard that word used before, it has become my favorite!
Good weird fun
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Of all the X-Files books I've cruised throughso far (seems like there's a new one every week),this little episode guide is by far the most fun. It covers all episodes up through "Terma", and has credits, summary, best dialog, trivia, Scully's explanation and Phwoar! bits, done in that wry British style you either love or loathe. I love it. This is the book I'll turn to when I want to check on who said what when.I gave it a 9 only because it has no pictures
