5.0 out of 5 stars NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, 8 May 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: X-files: Ground Zero (The X-files) (Audio Cassette)
In a word, incredible. Absolutely stunning. Better than any novel I had read up to this time and still one of the greatest books I have ever read.

The plot goes from a standard (censored as it ruins the plot) to an incredibly surprising(censored as it ruins the plot). It horrified me, made me laugh and scared me in equal measure, and for that you know you're reading a good book.

I seriously reccommend this to anybody, even if you are a fanatical X-FILES hater, you will enjoy it. Even if you've never read a book, or you've read all the others, read this one. It is incredible. Really, trust me. Don't miss out, because if you don't read this, you will.

Highly reccommended, as both a brilliant X-Files novel, a brilliant book and a downright brilliant piece of literature.

Buy it now.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best X-Files book yet, 12 Feb 2000
By A Customer
This has to be my favourite X-Files book yet. The plot is original and the settings are excellant. The charactors are also portrayed very well. Brillant reading whether you watch the TV show or not.

5.0 out of 5 stars A reveiw of Ruins bt Kevin .J.Anderson, 9 Oct 1999
By A Customer
This is probally the best X-Files book written to date. It is similar to the T.V series but has a plot thats different enough to make it worth buying. It is a great book with lots of action and suspence.
