Love, love, love this book! Kevin Anderson has the characters of Mulder and Scully spot on. The story is gripping and adventurous and is the best in the series. Definitely a must read for the X-files fan craving more Mulder/Scully stories.

This book was not well thought out. Muldar's jokes are made without regard to the urgency of the situation. If you and your partner were standing alone at night in a spooky ghost city and armed soldiers appeared out of nowhere, would you crack a joke?

Given these limitations, perhaps all you ... Read More

Brilliant! And again, Brilliant! A book of such profound allusions, similes and metaphores (mostly similies) that I was blown away. "...yelling 'bingo, bingo!' as if she were being mugged." Great lines like that are frequent in this book. Such a sublime talent this Anderson fella has.
This book reads as if it was written in 20 minutes, and no editing. I highly recommend this for anyone with a command of english literature and a good sense of humor.
