Summary: The Vancouver Days of the X-Files
Review: After watching Sunday's finale episode, I pulled out my "X Marks the Spot" book to reminisce about the "good ol'days" when the X-Files was filmed in Vancouver - which was seasons 1-5. This book, written by Louisa Gradnitzer and Todd Pittson (who were location managers on the X-Files for 5 years) and an introduction by Tom Braidwood (also known as Frohike of the Lone Gunmen), shows the viewer the places that the X-Files filmed in Vancouver, a map to show where they are located and behind the scene facts about the episodes.

What is great about this book, it is split into seasons and episodes so that you can find your favorite episode, what locations were used for it and trivia about the filming of it.
This book also contains black and white behind the scenes photos featuring the cast, crew, buildings, props, cast parties and the final shots from Vancouver, which closes the book.

This book is a must if you're an X-Phile planning on visiting Vancouver.

Summary: A unique and interesting approach
Review: Great look at what goes on behind the making of the X-Files. From set and actor problems to the interesting adventures with Vancouver locals. X-Philers and fans of the show will love this inside look.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent Inside Info For Fans
Review: This book was an excellent read for myself, an X-Files fan and a resident of Vancouver. It expresses the love and dedication that all the X-Files crew members had for the show.

Anyone who likes the X-Files will get a kick out of reading the various stories behind acquiring all the locations for the show. A synopsis of *every* episode shot in BC is given, making this a useful episode guide as well.

After reading the book, I can say I am truly lucky to live in a city that stood for so many diverse places during the X-Files run.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Here's What Happened. . . .
Review: Welp, unfortunately I can't tell you the whole behind the scenes look at what it took to get The "X-Files Phenomenom" going (It will take Forever and a Day, plus I wouldn't want to spoil the joy of you reading it), but I can say this is worth the money. Find out what it took to get the show on the road, how it was for everyone when they first got together, to the time they had to leave Their Vancouver Home where it All Started.
Written by Tom Braidwood (Fohike of the Lone Gunmen) so you know there is more than what an ordinary journalist can get a hold of. I guess you can call this Book "The little Diary of Tom Braidwood, and Friends."

Learn Everything you need to know about how They found the perfect location for each episode from Seasons 1-5, and find out how the weather was at the time of filming. . . hmmmm. It also has many Black and white pictures for your enjoyment, some funny, and others that illustrates how each set looked at the time of filming. It's definitely a keeper.
