You want to know more about her—and about her real-life persona, Peta Wilson—but until now everything about her has been classified. Now, access has been granted. With this book, you can uncover all the secrets Section One doesn't want you to know: Profiles on all operatives, dossiers on all missions, photographs of their beautiful agent at work.

5.0 out of 5 stars
It is a fun book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: La Femme Nikita X-posed: The Biography of Peta Wilson and Her On-screen Character (Paperback)
It is a fun book! I have seen the excellent original La Femme Nikita and the pathetic US remade. I love the idea that the book drew a nice comparison between the production/directors/leading actresses of the two movies and TV series. It juxtaposed them with one another providing solid background on how did the whole thing get evolved from a French movie that marginally made it in the US box office to an amazing TV hit series. The episode guide was very precise and gave the reader a good idea of the narrative. More, The Idiot's Guide To Section One is HILARIOUS!! If you are a fan of the TV series, you will find it real handy to have this book when you are in the mood to do some reading about the series or Peta Wilson. One drawback is that there are very few pictures of Peta and they are in black and white. (Just a thought: if the episodes of the La Femme Nikita could be in released in tapes like X-File did, it would be great. Also, I think this series would be even a bigger success, if it could be run on the major network.)

Only get the book if you are a new person to the show!,
By A Customer
This review is from: La Femme Nikita X-posed: The Biography of Peta Wilson and Her On-screen Character (Paperback)
I think you should only get this book if you have not been watching the show since the start of it. A hard core fan would know all of the stuff that is in it. There are not alot of pictures and the pictures that are there are all in b/w.

Nothing New,
By A Customer
This review is from: La Femme Nikita X-posed: The Biography of Peta Wilson and Her On-screen Character (Paperback)
After reading what was being said about the book on this page. I have went out to buy the book, but didn't after looking over the book. I haven't read any backstage gossip, nor anything about a realtionship between Peta and Matthew. Maybe there is another book with the backstage information as well as the information about Peta and Matthew.The book didn't have anything in it that I haven't read online. I was hoping that it was a book that really lets us get to know the characters behind the masks if you know what I mean. This book is for newcomers that haven't yet seen LFN. The fans that are now starting to see season 1.
