This insider's guide to Alias is essential reading
not only for committed fans but also for latecomers coming
to the show on DVD who are interested in catching up with
the characters, storylines and background. The book also includes
exclusive bonus material such as a colour-coded global 'mission
map.' Compelling and comprehensive, this fully-illustrated
large-format companion volume is the next best thing to being
a field agent yourself...
I'm
always wary of approaching guide books. More often than not
they are rather dry affairs with little in the way of new
information (or facts that you couldn't easily pick up from
the Internet for free).
Alias:
Authorized Personnel Only doesn't offer that much in the
way of surprises. However, what is refreshing is the fact
that this collection is in full colour - a very rare, but
welcomed, occurrence for this style of book. Although, some
larger images would have been nice.
The
book is divided into five main sections: a mission-by-mission
analysis of the series; a catalogue of the agents' personal
histories and psychological profiles; Jack Bristow's own extensive
coverage of the Enemies of the State; descriptions of the
high-tech gadgets used by Sydney and her team; and Project
Black Hole's official report on the shadowy figure Milo Rambaldi.
There
is also an interesting Travel Log section at the back of the
book that shows (on large double page global maps) where Sydney
has travelled each season.
Alias
fans will find this both informative and entertaining. It's
a collection that you can either dip in and out of, or read
from cover to cover.
