Supernatural: The Official Companion Season 5

Supernatural: The Official Companion #5

by Nicholas Knight

NAVIGATE THE PERILOUS ROAD BETWEEN HEAVEN AND HELL

Supernatural, the hit show from The CW, ramped up the tension in season five as the Winchesters faced the possibility of the end of everything, and the viewing figures and critical response soared accordingly.

Lucifer has been released from his prison in Hell, and has in turn unleashed the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse - War, Famine, Pestilence and Death - to herald the end of times. Dean and Sam have set themselves the seemingly impossible task of stopping the Apocalypse, while also trying to avoid their destinies: to be the human vessels for Archangel Michael and Lucifer when they fight to determine the fate of Earth and humanity. On the journey, the Winchesters fine time to face wraiths, witches, pagan gods, the Whore of Babylon, and a cute anti-Christ.

This official companion is packed with exclusive interviews, photos, behind-the-scenes secrets, the low-down on the show's supernatural entities, and a complete episode guide. Plus a color portrait gallery of the stars!

Exactly what you'd expect for an official companion. Episode summaries and commentary, character bios, etc. Includes a section of nice glossy photos. Naturally, it's spoilerific, so if you're not caught up -- like me -- you probably shouldn't have put it on your Christmas list. Still! A nice addition to an SPN fan's collection.

I love reading these companions and looking at all these gorgeous pictures from Jensen/Dean, Jared/Sam and Misha/Castiel. :)

This book is just as it says, a companion to the 5th season of the show. It goes through the individual episodes and then also takes a look at the more prominent characters from the season. You get a very nice behind the scenes look at the show. This is a very nice book for fans of the show who want to learn more about the process and behind the scenes.

I really enjoy these. They are the perfect companion to the series. I love the little factoids that are included, the information about the songs used in the episode, quotes and little inside things that you don't know just watching the season.
I love that I can use this as a quick reference if I have a question.
