Book Reviews of The Twilight Zone Companion
Book Review: The Best Episode guide so far still needs improvement!
Summary: 3 Stars
Although this is the best episode guide on TZ, the author fails to accurately analyze many of the shows. At times he seems to randomly nitpick and bash episodes that fans have loved for years. In addition, some of the shows receive only a few lines of analysis, while other shows receive very lengthy and detailed coverage. However, if you are a very big TZ fan, like me, you need this book. Some of the comments by Zicree are insightful, and his coverage of the series is the most extensive thus far.Book Review: You're never alone with this "companion"!
Summary: 5 Stars
This fantastic book details every episode with a cast list, plot summary, the begining and ending Serling voice-overs, and even behind-the-scenes info on the crew, the story's origin, and the actual filming itself.They're all here, and in one collection. I read this thing everywhere -- at lunch, on the bus, late at night, heck, even on the throne (but that's probably a little too much information.)
This may just be the best book I've yet purchased from Amazon.com.
TRUST ME, YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY IF YOU ADD THIS TO YOUR SHOPPING CART!
Book Review: Great book for TZ fans!
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a huge TZ fan, and have been for years and years. This is THE best book on the subject of the original TZ television series, bar none. I have probably 30 different TZ books in my library, and this is the one I keep going to over and over again.My second copy is getting pretty ratty, guess I might as well buy a third while I'm here! hehe If you haven't seen this book, and you love the original TZ, by all means order it today. I simply can't say enough!
Book Review: A sci-fi Bible!
Summary: 5 Stars
I give "ten" to this book 'cause it's just a classic for its fans. The writer made a very good job! This book is important for whom like me, an italian fan of "Ai confini della realta'" (The Twilight Zone in Italy). I've never known many episodes of the serie, 'cause in Italy last TV appareance was in the Sixties...and I'm 'only' 27. A very, very nice book, good organization and many pictures. Buy it!Book Review: An great book to have on hand while watching Twilight Zone.
Summary: 5 Stars
Widely regarded as the best anthology TV series ever, as well as perhaps the best Science Fiction show, the Twilight Zone has many fans. This book lists every episode, and includes the story introductions and concluding monologues, as spoken by Rod Serling on the show. Marc Scott Zicree also reviews all the episodes, as well as provides interviews and backgrounds by some of those that worked on the show, including the writers and directors. Also included is some dialog from the series, and some biographical information on Serling. The updated version includes information on the new series, and an expanded index. A must-have for fans of the series and of Rod Serling.
