New Hercules: the Legendary Journeys guide coming in December

I just got word (via the Google news service) that the second volume of the official guide to Hercules: the Legendary Journeys is coming out in december 2004.

Like the first volume, it's written by Robert Weisbrot. I've got the first volume, and it's a fun read: it's got episode recaps (with quotes from Kevin and/or Michael) for the first three seasons and interviews with writers, actors and production people, plus some good color & b/w photos.

More information on what will be in the second volume here; looks like it will cover the last three seasons. No specific mention of Michael Hurst, alas, but Kevin Smith fans take note:
Among several dozen other interviews with producers, writers, and cast members, I spoke at length with Kevin Smith, the charming and witty actor who played the god of war Ares, months before his accidental death in Beijing last year.

:Salmoneus voice:

Where would the profit be in that?

Well, I just bought it. Luckily it was used at amazon for very little $$.

I got the Bruce Campbell one used at amazon too, but I'm holding out on the Dear Salmoneus book. :->

Well, I just bought it.

Wow. I must remember to use this force for good, not for evil. *g*

I would like to get the Dear Salmoneus book too, it sounds fun. If I see a good deal on it, I'll drop you a line.

Woohoo! I never thought we'd see an episode guide for the last three seasons.

I know! It's probably quite pathetic of me, but I read the news and went 'Yay! Someone knows there are still Hercules fans around!"

I'm pathetic too. :) I think this means the DVDs must be selling really well.

Terrific news--thanks for sharing. I've got the first guide, too, and despaired of seeing the rest published.

You're welcome! I didn't even know they'd planned a sequel, so it was a really nice surprise.
