3.0 out of 5 stars Just the same as the episode., April 14, 2002

This review is from: X Files #01 X Marks the Spot (X Files Middle Grade) (Paperback)

This novel adapts The X-Files pilot episode. Dana Scully has been assigned to the X-Files with the main aim to debunk them, but is quickly drawn into Fox Mulder's world of conspiracy and alien abductions. They're investigating a town where kids from the class of '89 are all being found dead with 2 identical scars on their bodies. As the book is only an adaptation from the series is doesn't really shed much light on the characters - it's pretty much what you see in the episode on tv is what you'll find here. Still it is good if you dont have access to the show for reminiscent purposes only.

5.0 out of 5 stars It sure is #1!, April 20, 1998

This review is from: X Files #01 X Marks the Spot (X Files Middle Grade) (Paperback)

Still my favourite Xifiles book, #1 is full of excitment! Was it a human corpse that Scully dug up? Why are all the people who died in the graduating class of 1989? What are the two red dots on there backs? Was Mulder right, did time really lose three hours? What's the metal thing placed in the class of '89 students' teeth? All these questions, and more are hard too figure out when students in the graduating class of '89 are dieing. A little too hard...
