'Firefly: The Official Companion' volume 2 reviewed. SerenityStuff says "You want it. Trust me.".

It is a fantastic read, especially for the glimpses into the Firefly episodes that never were. And there's some nice mentions about the fandom too: the Ariel Ambulance rescue campaign, "Done the Impossible" documentary and the Backup Bash. It's the perfect gift for any Firefly fan.

And the highlight for me personally? Well that rumour I read years ago about what was originally supposed be the object d'art that Mal and co were supposed to steal in 'Trash' turned out to be half true (right group, wrong album). Four years I've waited to find out what it was. It's nice to have closure.

I still haven't received mine from Amazon, but this link just makes me drool in anticipation.

Serenity getting struck by an old war mine. Buh. Give me that episode.

Though it is gonna kill me to read episodes that would have been.

I have my copy already ordered, but it's with another book that won't be available until August, but I will be looking forward to having it!

impalergeneral | May 03, 03:49 CET

Keep in mind we don't get actual episodes, or even fleshed out plots. Just some thoughts one storylines the writers wanted to do.

I think I'm still drooling...

C. A. Bridges | May 03, 04:05 CET

I do not have it ordered. There will have to be a confluence of the book on a shelf at a local store and money in my pocket.

The One True b!X | May 03, 04:18 CET

I bought the first one at Borders. Not sure if I ever saw it at any other bookstore.

When is/was the official release date?

Okkay | May 03, 05:00 CET

I've had mine ordered for weeks now, but much like impalergeneral I made the mistake of ordering more than one book at once, so who knows when I'll actually get my grubby little hands on the thing? (>.<)

Haunt | May 03, 06:07 CET

I just got an email from my favourite sci-fi bookshop saying my copy is ready and waiting for me. Looks like I'll be going book shopping tomorrow!

mimbles | May 03, 07:00 CET

I ordered mine from waldenbooks and got it today on my lunch break. I got to reading it and ended up getting back from lunch too late.

Sabri3l | May 03, 07:43 CET

I'm SO anxious to see it, especially after Chris' comments on the blog!

lexigeek | May 03, 07:47 CET

We at Goners WOULD be looking forward to seeing fellow Goners lexigeek in it, if he wasn't such a base Gonerian deserter and betraying Gonerseseses quitter-face who'll be getting no pie if he doesn't come back soon with his hat in hand and visit us...:>

QuoterGal | May 03, 08:17 CET

Gonerian

*head explodes*

The One True b!X | May 03, 08:47 CET

Does this mean we have Gonerrhea?

damaged justice | May 03, 09:32 CET

Gonerian

*head explodes*

I never get tired of that... :>

QuoterGal | May 03, 09:34 CET

*gulp*

*is sufficiently chastised*

*has good reasons*

*will stop by soon*

:D

lexigeek | May 03, 10:07 CET

I pre-ordered with amazon.co.uk, and the estimated delivery date on my order is still a week away. *sulks*

sorchasilver | May 03, 15:49 CET

*ignores lexigeek till he comes back to Goners*
I ordered Vol. 2 from my local independent bookstore, so it may take longer. sigh.

Lioness | May 03, 15:53 CET

QuoterGal! Stop that with all the Gonerian!

mifeng | May 03, 17:06 CET

I want to live in the alternate universe where Firefly is in its fifth season.

daylight | May 03, 18:14 CET

Stop that with all the Gonerian!

You can't stop the Gonerian... err, signal.

Does that make QuoterGal related to Gozer the Gozerian?
"Don't cross the (blog) streams... That would be bad."

OneTeV | May 03, 19:36 CET

Does Gonerian, come associated with gonerisms?

**Runs and ducks, for not really making any sense at all.
