Crispin, A. C. - V series 1: V - Pinnacle - 4091542 € 3,50 Essef - 1984 - pocket - 402 p. - It's a freakin' novelization of a superb 1983 television miniseries and its only so-so follow-up miniseries from a year later. That said, THIS is the book that not only makes you an A.C. Crispin fan-for-life but also tuns you in to a deeper and more under-the-hood form of science fiction than could be gleaned from television (or in a movie theater, for that matter). Once you have digested Ms. Crispin's excellent interwoven character development that FAR exceeded the depth of even Kenneth Johnson's riveting teleplay, you will realized that science fiction as a LITERARY art form needs some serious exploration.
