Before the smash hit movie "Serenity" came "Firefly", the cult TV series which started it all and became a DVD phenomenon, selling almost half a million copies. Set 500 years in the future, "Firefly" centres around Mal Reynolds, captain of the ship-for-hire Serenity and its eclectic crew of galactic misfits. When he takes on two passengers, a young doctor and his mysterious, telepathic sister, he gets much more than he bargained for...This official companion is just what the show's fervent fans, the 'Browncoats', have been waiting for, with unseen photos, scripts, behind the scenes secrets, and exclusive input from the cast and crew, including of course creator Joss Whedon.

A first point of note is that this book only contain the scripts for the first six episodes (although one of these is the movie length unaired pilot), the rest of the series is included in volume 2. While a large proption of the book is spent on the scripts, these are not page upon page of text. Every page has screenshots, concept art or extra behind the scenes information that will interest and entertain the reader. The individual scripts are also started with an introduction from the writer. Also include is a full page about each of the 9 main cast.
Beautifully printed in bright colours on glossly paper a great purchase for Firefly/Serenity fans and a must have for any true Browncoat.
An interesting book full of information on the series. There are plenty of gorgeous photos and illustrations, some great interviews and essays, information on costume designs for the characters and scripts for a few of the episodes, complete with lines from scenes that were cut out later and little commentary bits. A shiny book and recommended to all Browncoats.
