The Making of the X-Files: Fight the Future brings the reader onto the set and into the studios. If you are not familiar with the intricacies of producing a film, prepare to be boggled by the hectic schedule required to make Fight the Future possible. Combining a past-tense narrative on the various stages of production, with first-person, present-tense journal entries for anecdotal flavour, Duncan offers a dual perspective on the evolution of the movie. Her narrative is punctuated with stills from the film, and behind-the-scenes photographs. The movie's concept illustrations also adorn the pages, and make for interesting backgrounds to the text and photos. Die-hard X-philes will get their dose of trivia, with interesting facts on everything from secrecy protocols to set construction to bee wrangling. While some "making of"" books are little more than marketing tie-ins with big movies, Duncan actually tells the story of Fight the Future's ""life"", from conception to completion, creating a ""making of"" book with both substance and style. -- Brian Patterson "
