Der Autor über sein Buch
Behind-the-scenes insights from those who were there
The Season-by-Season Guides look at the eyes of every single Babylon 5 episodes through the eyes of those who were there. Stories of what went right, what went wrong, memories of how they approached storylines and how it fits into the big arc come from all the main cast members, the directors and the creative mind behind the whole project, J Michael Straczynski, who comments on every episode. Each episode is also re-told in a short, dramatically written synopsis which, when put together, tell the story of each season.
Season Guide #1: Signs and Portents includes a forward by Michael O'Hare who lead the cast as Commander Sinclair in the first year and chapters on the pilot film, The Gathering; how the series was sold to sceptical TV bosses who thought there was no room for science fiction on television outside Star Trek; and an author's analysis of the first season. The British edition included eight pages of colour photographs which, I assume, are included in the US imprint.
Jane Killick is a full time freelance writer and broadcaster. I have been writing for science fiction magazines for many years and among my previous books is The Making of Judge Dredd, a behind-the-scenes account of the Sylvester Stallone movie.

I have taped all of the shows, & proceed to watch them at my own leisure one by one. After watching each episode, I then read the synopsis of the episode out of the book. It tends to make some minute things come to life.Things that I consider minor, are shown to be of great importance by the creator. The insights on why things were done, the timing of those things, it was all very excellent. I reccommend it for any real Baylon 5 fan. There is sooo much to learn from this series of books.
Format:Taschenbuch
This is an excellent reference book. I skipped the capsule descriptions of the episodes and went to the real meat: the behind-the-scenes stuff. Whether it's an anecdote by one of the actors/actresses, or getting into the nuts-and-bolts business of keeping the show on the air and staying within budget, this volume never failed to delight.

This is an episode guide done by an English writer. Thus the delay in getting this on the market for almost five years. Well worth the wait. One of my pet peeves with the Starlog series magazines and the Starlog general magazine as well, is the lack of complete credit lists of the artists and creative personnel. Nothing is more annoying to me than wondering all through an episode who someone is (as in-- I've seen that face before, or, who's that, they're really good?) and wanting to find out what else they've done (using the net of course) and then there is a swing insert preview or teaser at the end which squinches up the cast credits. Or you missed the leading credits, but that doesn't matter anyway, because there are five or six opening credits and you don't know any of them. And they go by too fast to write down. (Hercules and Xena do this scrunching all the time. Better to scrunch the chief grip, etc. ) These episode guide books are really handy for looking someone up, just as useful as the episode summaries themselves. In addition, there have well-written commentaries and analyses of the major themes of the series. This series is so well packed that since I have been watching the reruns on TNT, I picked up on sub-texts and hints that were not returned to until the fourth season when there was doubt that a fifth would be done. I am looking forward to buying the last three books, I already have the first two. Carter Rila
