4.0 out of 5 stars Gabrielle's scrolls......
Hmmmm, this book is quite good - but I believe that there are better ones out there. If you're a complete xena freak like me then, then you'll want to have it - it is amusing, especially as it is from gabby's point of view, and sometimes the author manages to nail it and you can hear gabby's voice saying the words. It's not for someone who doesn't know the programme too...

2.0 out of 5 stars This book crudely portays Gabrielle's thoughts.
This book poorly attempts to offer a glimpse into the scrolls of Gabrielle, relating to her insights and feelings about her adventures with Xena. The style in which it is written is unworthy of any bard, especially Gabrielle. Childish and choppy, the text reads more like a rant than a narration. While Gabrielle may babble and ramble on in normal conversation, any...

4.0 out of 5 stars Gabrielle's scrolls......, January 18, 2000
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
Hmmmm, this book is quite good - but I believe that there are better ones out there. If you're a complete xena freak like me then, then you'll want to have it - it is amusing, especially as it is from gabby's point of view, and sometimes the author manages to nail it and you can hear gabby's voice saying the words. It's not for someone who doesn't know the programme too well. It often makes brief references to episodes and I'm not really sure how much sense it would make if you hadn't seen them. It is quite a short book, but you'll not want to put it down until you've read it. Don't buy this if you're looking for something really informative about the show. This book is a bit of fun and nothing more - like I said before - something for the die-hard fans rather than anyone else....

4.0 out of 5 stars Gabrielle's life line story in one book!, July 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
If you want to learn everything about Gabrielle's life this is the book for you! Her stories and journeys with Xena will thrill and take you beyond the pages of her book. Every chapter has something new, and you learn many things about the way she lives with Xena, and Joxer too. Pick this book to learn more then even Xena knows about Gabrielle's life.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book will not let any Xena fan put it down!, July 22, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
This book is a creative way of putting any xena fan on the journeys. It comes from Gabrielle's perspective of lessons, discoveries, friendship,and many things well taught, that she's learned on the journeys. As a Xena fan I recommend it. Though it's fairly short, It will keep you turning the pages all night long! Complete with a Introduction by Renee 'O Connor, I find it a very believable book.

4.0 out of 5 stars pretty good, September 27, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
This was a real cute book..a must for any "hardcore nutball" Xena fan. I like the pictures and Renee O'Connor's small top ten list in the front was a big bonus...It was not a real introduction, but good nonetheless. I wouldn't spend a huge amount of money on it..but good for the price here.

5.0 out of 5 stars If I was a bard, this would be my bible!, May 20, 2003
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
A great edition for any true Xena fan. Read through the list of things Gabrielle has learned from her friend Xena as well as the ins and outs of living life on the road, (or the dirt track as they would say) A great read, full of good laughs and informative too.

2.0 out of 5 stars This book crudely portays Gabrielle's thoughts., April 8, 1999
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
This book poorly attempts to offer a glimpse into the scrolls of Gabrielle, relating to her insights and feelings about her adventures with Xena. The style in which it is written is unworthy of any bard, especially Gabrielle. Childish and choppy, the text reads more like a rant than a narration. While Gabrielle may babble and ramble on in normal conversation, any scrolls she would have written seriously would have had some form of elegant expression. The only credit to give are a few interesting references to episodes, but not enough to make the book work.

5.0 out of 5 stars A funny must read book as told by Bard Gabrielle., September 1, 1998
By 
atreken@nternet.net (Jacksonville, North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
This is some of the stories of Xena and Gabrielle's adventures as told through the eyes of Bard Gabrielle. Only Gabby could put a funny twist on a bad situation. Gabby is able to tell the stories how she likes without wondering when she will get that look from Xena. This is a must read book. I could she each of their adventures as I read them. It was like I was right there with them. The writer did a great job. You can see Gabrielle saying the very words on the page. This is an excellent book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Its pretty good, March 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
Not the best xena book ever, but very funny. A very good top ten list, some quotes, with chapter titles like: "My costume may be scanty, but....." "War may be hell, but he's got great pecs" "The god of war is not an equal opportunity employer" "Keeping your mind when your friend is losing hers" You can't help but like this book.

2.0 out of 5 stars It's a STUPID book, HOWEVER, a must-have for Xenaphiles, January 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: All I Need To Know I Learned From Xena: Warrior Princess (Paperback)
Trite, campy, and childish, this book is almost too stupid to read through even once. Nothing new about Xena or any other character is revealed. And although it is told from the point of view of Gabrielle, it is unconvincing. But, I believe that the addition of this book to ones Xena collection is an unfortunate necessity for rabid Xena fans (such as myself) in order to make said collection complete. We can only hope that future books are better written.
