All I can say is I'm mentioned by name on Page 1, after meeting her on a radio show at a sci fi con. So of course I have to rate this 5 stars ;)

Great book. A must if you’re a Claudia Christian and/or Babylon 5 fan.

[Justin · Rating 2 out of 5]

Well. At least it was short. I got this & the other biographical book she wrote. Hopefully the other is more substantial.

Funny, beautiful Claudia Christian.

A bit short, but a really funny, entertaining read. Great for Babylon 5 fans, and fans of Claudia' other works.

Agreeing with others here - the book needed a better editor.

[N.A. Brun · Rating 4 out of 5]

To be honest, I feel like I should have read this one before I read Babylon Confidential. Babylon Confidential went into more detail on things that are touched on in this book, and there are some stories that remain the same between the two of them. But, each has its own unique purpose and I'm glad I've read both of them.

Claudia has a way of making you believe you're there with her as she retells her tales of conventions. The highs and the lows are so obviously clear, and it's a fun read. Like Babylon Confidential, there are pictures to accompany the tales and it's nice to be able to place the whos and wheres that you've read about.

There's a beautiful honesty to this book, which brings forth a unique collection of tales. Personally I'm surprised that the Tribble Postman even dared to come back, but I'll not give that away fully in case you haven't read it yet. Definitely one I'd recommend, even if it is a little short.

Kinda fun, but very short and needed an editor.
