Again, a Guide to Bab5! This one takes care of Seasons 4 and 5, and also includes The Books, The Comics and The Games. As in the previous Guide, the Episode Directories are set up the same way so you can follow each season episode in order, with all the extras, quotes, information, people, places and events. Not much more to embellish on except that as you get closer and closer to #522, you know that is is going to be over really soon. and that part always makes me sad. The information in the final sections is not as complete as I might have hoped, especially the books, but then, I am partial to good reviews. I wasn't aware of comics, so that was a fun bit of reading. Since I am not a gamer, didn't really get that part, but it is nice to know that somewhere out there someone is still playing the game and enjoying the places that J. Michael created. The Movies were a pretty big disappointment, but they gave it their best shot and I think Andy Lane and I pretty much agreed on the content and caliber of the productions. As with the first Guide, if you are a fan, you should have this. Since all we'll ever get is re-runs, its nice to take a step or 2 back and revisit the place where so many good and unusual things happened, where we met such a strange mix of characters and enjoyed the back and forth between G'Kar and Londo, Ivanova and Garibaldi, and Kosh and Sheridan. Those were the days and they are sorely missed!
