Review

"Short but sweet, a highly recommended addtition to anyone's bookshelf - Trekker, Trekkie, geek or otherwise - we can't wait for his next book!" - Paul Hudson, Linux Format, July - Linux Format Top Stuff Award


Product Description

Wil Wheaton--blogger, geek, and Star Trek: The Next Generation's Wesley Crusher--gives us five short-but-true tales of life in the so-called Space Age in Dancing Barefoot. With a true geek's unflinching honesty, Wil examines life, love, the web, and the absurdities of Hollywood in these compelling autobiographical narratives. Based on pieces first published in Wil's hugely popular blog, www.wilwheaton.net, the stories in Dancing Barefoot chronicle a teen TV star's journey to maturity and self-acceptance. Far from the usual celebrity tell-all, Dancing Barefoot is a vivid account of one man's version of that universal story, the search for self. If you've ever fallen in love, wondered what goes on behind the scenes at a Star Trek convention, or thought hard about the meaning of life, you'll find a kindred soul in the pages of Dancing Barefoot. In the process of uncovering his true geeky self, Wil Wheaton speaks to the inner geek in all of us. The stories: Houses in Motion - Memories fill the emptiness left within a childhood home, and saying goodbye brings them to life. Ready Or Not Here I Come - A game of hide-n-seek with the kids works as a time machine, taking Wil on a tour of the hiding and seeking of years gone by. Inferno - Two 15-year-olds pass in the night leaving behind pleasant memories and a perfumed Car Wars Deluxe Edition Box Set. We Close Our Eyes - A few beautiful moments spent dancing in the rain. The Saga of SpongeBob VegasPants - A story of love, hate, laughter and the acceptance of all things Trek.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sweet read, 21 Feb 2004
Wil writes with passion, this his first autobiographical book has real heart. If you like to read stories of real emotion you'll love this book from an approachable writer. I look forward to reading more of his work in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wesly Crusher, NOT, 8 Mar 2004
By Richard (Griff) (Kent United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
To any readers of his blog, you know what to expect and you won't be disappointed.
To those of you who only know him as Wesley Crusher from Star Trek TNG you are in for a big surprise!.
The stories are from the heart and, if you’re a Star Trek fan, will make you think.
But, ultimately these five true short stories will make you feel good and laugh.

(REAL NAME)   
This book was fantastic, heart warming, insightful, honest, sad, sweet, painful and hilariously funny. Get it. Get it NOW. Buy more Wheaton at any opportunity (no he's not paying me to write this !) He's a brilliant writer.
