Summary: There can be only one!
Review: This cast-and-crew short fiction anthology is one of the best I've read. Clever new story lines featuring favorite characters from the Highlander mythos ... wonderful stuff. "Postcards from Alexa" made me cry; "Pants" made me laugh. A must for any Highlander fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A different look at Highlander:The Series
Review: This is a book that anyone who is a fan of Highlander:The Series will definitely enjoy. These short stories (some of which are really short) were written by the people who know Highlander:The Series best including Ken Gord (the Producer of the show), F. Braun McAsh (the show's swordmaster), Jim Byrnes (Joe Dawson), Peter Wingfield (Methos), Valentine Pelka (Kronos) and Stan Kirsch (Richie). Having the actors/crew write these stories instead of a "known" writer gives this collection of short stories a more personal feeling. The actors have gone one step further in exploring a side of their character than what was seen on the screen. Don't expect every story to include or even be about Duncan. That's what makes these stories so interesting. Jim's story is a look at Joe's experience in Vietnam. We finally get a look at the famous Methos Chronicles. We also get an idea of the relationship between Methos and Alexa from the time they left Joe's until Geneva. And Stan's story.. well you just have to read it for yourself (to tell you more would ruin the experience). In more than one case a totally different spin was put on the story. All in all these amateur writers did a great job of revisiting the Highlander characters we love. Hopefully there will be a second book somewhere down the line.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Simply a "Must Read" for all Highlander fans!
Review: This is a wonderful book and a must read for all fans of "Highlander". The cast and crew did a marvelous job of joining forces one last time to give us several wonderful short stories. "Post Cards From Alexa" is moving and beautiful. While "Pants" is sure to give you a good laugh. I would recommend this book to any fan of the show or the movies.

Summary: A book worth reading
Review: Very interesting book. Written not only by professional writers, but also by members of the cast and crew, it turns out to be a good source for new Highlander related stories, for the delight of those who followed the TV series -- and always wanted more.

Some of the short stories complete the ones developed on TV, filling those blanks you didn't see on the show; others, makes you feel as if you were watching a brand-new episode of Highlander. The stories varies from writer to writer, but yet you are able to enjoy all of them equally.

My favorites are "Post Cards From Alexa" (if you like Methos, you'll love it), "The Star of Athena" (Amanda in her better shape), "Pants" (very funny), "Consone's Diary" (MacLeod from Consone's point of view), "The Methos Chronicles Part I" (centuries of Methos' life are covered here) and "The Other Side of The Mirror" (Adrian Paul trapped in an alternative world).
