Starring Buffy and Angel's David Boreanaz, Bones is the thrilling investigative drama inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist and best-selling novelist Kathy Reichs.

Dr Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) is a highly skilled forensic anthropologist, often teamed with Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz), piecing together the clues left behind in murder victims’ bones. Booth and Brennan solve horrific crimes while keeping viewers gripped by their ongoing love/hate relationship.

BEAUTIFUL Book! Bones fans will LOVE it!5
This book is of excellent quality and really fun to look at! The pages are very colorful and include tons of photographs and forensic definitions / facts!

The book starts with a foreward by Kathy Reichs, an introduction by Hart Hanson (exec producer), then another section on the inspiration for the show and how it was developed.

This is all followed by an episode guide which takes up most of the pages of the book, but it is not your typical episode guide. In addition to the plot summary (which includes key facts as to how the case is solved), it details who wrote each episode, who the guest stars were, information about filming and location, definitions of forensic terms used in the episode, dialogue clips, and even a listing of music and artists that were featured in each episode.

Mixed in amongst the episode listings are a few pages with detailed information (titled "Research Files" in the table of contents) on the following subjects: Victim Identification, The Angelator, Insect Activity & Soil Analysis, X-Rays, Practical Experimentation, and Identifying Foreign Matter.

Following the episode guide are character profiles, with about four pages of photos and information for each character (including both Dr. Goodman from Season 1 and Cam from Season 2). These are followed by "Behind the Scenes" pages titled "Gross Anatomy: Special Effects Makeup: Creating the Dead Bodies" and "Getting Under the Skin: The Science of Bones."

I was REALLY impressed by this book, especially for the price. I would expect it to go for at least $20, maybe even $30. (The cover price is $14.95 though Amazon is currently selling it for a little more than $10). Its fantastic and makes a great gift for Bones fans!

a wonderful gift for Bones fans5
I just received this in the mail today. It is a Christmas gift for my daughter, who loves Bones. I was expecting a paperback book with maybe a few full color photos. What I got was an ENTIRE book in full color. The quality is excellent. The pictures are wonderful. She is going to have a fit. The book is organized into episodes, with a summary, glossary of terms and list of music used in the episode. The book also contains character profiles and science information. This book surpassed my expectations and it is going to turn out to be her favorite gift, I am sure. You won't be disappointed.

Ha, I'm in Love5
This book has made my year. I am in love with Bones and this just adds to the obsession-It comes with all the songs in each episode so you could add it to your library. The pictures are to die for and the review of each episode is excellent and doesn't forget anything.
