4.0 out of 5 stars A must have for all Roswell Fans!, November 8, 2001

By	"beryl11196" (Astoria, New York United States) - See all my reviews

As a die-hard Roswell fan I was looking forward to this book for its synopsis of all episodes in Seasons One and Two. The book provided a wealth of information on the cast and show. I especially liked the section from each epsiode on where have we seen them before. Another thing that cracked me up was reading of all the little 'mistakes' they made filming certain scenes. It made me want to go back and watch all the episodes again to check it out. One reason for the 4 stars is that there were no pictures inside. I would have liked to have cast pics liek the "Buffy Watchers Guide" has. All Roswell fans will enjoy this

5.0 out of 5 stars We want more!!!, June 8, 2002

By	Linsey Harrower (Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This is the ultimate guide for seasons one and two. I have seen all of the episodes, but felt compelled to watch them again as I read each of the episodes in the book. Using the book I was able to see things I hadn't noticed when I watched the episodes for the first time. Each episode is broken down into eleven sub-topics including an episode synopsis, quotes, mistakes, and the answers to those 'where have I seen him/her before' questions. It's all in there, every Roswell fan should have a copy. The only thing left to say, as an obvious fan myself, is will there be another book to include season three?!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good guide for first two seasons, wish it had third, July 11, 2005

I've got a copy of Topping's "The Complete Slayer", that covers all 7 seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer plus the Kristy Swanson movie, based on that purchase I decided to order this book from Amazon. If it follows that book in form and layout it will be an exhaustive guide to the first two seasons of Roswell, giving details most people would never think to look for. It should be well worth owning, especially with the DVD sets out for purchase now.
I'm guessing that the only real fault to be found in the book is the lack of the 3rd season, if Topping hasn't done an update in the three years since the show ended I doubt he will do one. It ought to be a better book than "Crash Into Me" by Robyn Burnett (the exception being that one does cover third season).
