Reader Reviews
I love the X-Files, and I wanted to read more of the "backstory" of each episode. Instead, most of the book is wasted on the synopses for each episode. Usually, 6 pages is wasted on the story summary, and only one page on the backstory. We don't need 6 pages of story summary for each episode: we can watch that! Instead, give us more on the background! .
