Customer Reviews

A great book - essential for BSG fans.
If you read the first Battlestar Galactica companion, then you know what to expect from the season two book: incredibly detailed guides to the making of every episode, plus great interviews with all the cast (including - yeah! - Michael 'Tigh' Hogan and Callum Keith 'Leoben' Rennie) and key crew. Yes, the book covers a lot of the same ground covered in Ron Moore's podcasts, but it's also packed with a lot of riveting extra information, like the attempted casting of film star Sigourney Weaver as Admiral Cain. There's also a lovely introduction written by Mary McDonnell, you can almost hear her voice as you read it! Shame there's not more colour photos in the book, though - apart from a few colour spreads, the pictures are all black and white.
