The X-files: Ruins is a fun, quick read that any fan of the show should find entertaining. It is well written by Kevin J. Anderson who also wrote the bestselling `Ground Zero' prior to Ruins. His style has a nice flow to it and he is able to transfer Dana Scully and Fox Mulder to text in a near perfect fashion. So if you're worried about this book because of its writing do not threat, because unlike most tie-in authors Anderson seems to have a real grip on his quality and what pleases viewers ... Read More

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.

It is interesting how Anderson used existing specualtions about the Mayan civilization, but twisted them into Mulder and Scully's universe. I am happy he didn't take too many liberties. That is ...

This is the type of adaptation that gives adaptations a bad name.
The assignment of writing an "X-Files" book is a very difficult one. Anderson probably wasn't allowed to have any kind of meaningful character development, nothing can happen that has any sort of permanent effect on any of the regular X-Files characters, and you're introducing characters that every single reader has undoubtedly formed some preconceived notions about.
Given these limitations, perhaps all you ... Read More
