The episode "The Xena Scrolls" of the number-one syndicated TV series Xena: Warrior Princess explains the lore of the mythical superheroine. Now, in a fold-out-map format, this reproduction of an ancient papyrus is surrounded by fascinating sidebars and illustrated with video stills of Xena and her faithful companion Gabrielle. This poster-sized collectible makes the legends behind Xena's powers come alive for every fan.

Her favorite reading material includes Megan Lindholm, science fiction by Larry Niven, murder mysteries by Patricia Cornwell, plus any other good historical non-fiction.
This is a giant fold out poster with pictures from the show surrounding the text. When folded it’s a little bigger than the Xena paperbacks and is written by the same author. If you haven’t watched the episode “The Xena Scrolls”, it will not make much sense because it is a letter from Melinda Pappas to Janice Covington providing “translations” (AKA episode summaries) of the scrolls.
There is some mild subtext as Janice is in Lesbos while Melinda is writing and there is a cryptic remark about one of Gabrielle’s descendants hiding some of the scrolls because Gabrielle was ashamed of something. If you are a fan of the show you will probably like this but used copies aren’t cheap. It’s also hard to read when it’s unfolded because it’s so big.
