1.0 out of 5 stars Obviously not written by someone familiar with XENA, May 31, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Xena X-Posed: The Unauthorized Biography of Lucy Lawless and Her On-Screen Character (Paperback)

This book is simply a compilation of items mostly available for free on the Internet. The author is a bit sloppy in ascribing sources properly. Things are clipped together and there are many inaccuracies and errors in show content, episode descriptions, and so forth. There are much better XENA books out there.

1.0 out of 5 stars Xena X-posed, December 1, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Xena X-Posed: The Unauthorized Biography of Lucy Lawless and Her On-Screen Character (Paperback)

Hi, as a Xena fan, I want to warn you of this book. First off, it is UNAUTHORIZED which makes it all but great. Second, you can find most of it's content here on the internet. It has pictures and such that can all be found on the web. So I urge you, DONT BUY THIS BOOK!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars this book is not really worth the money you would spend, November 22, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Xena X-Posed: The Unauthorized Biography of Lucy Lawless and Her On-Screen Character (Paperback)

I think that this book was alright but it could've been way better. There were a lot of errors especially in the episode guide section of the book. I think that the author could have put some of the things she wrote into her own words.
