9781840237276: Joss Whedon : The Genius Behind Buffy

Synopsis

He wrote the hit movies Toy Story and Speed, created Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel and is behind the bestselling comic Fray. This is the first and only book to cover Joss Whedon's entire career! Compiled with his full co-operation, it covers his school days in England, via his first TV job writing Roseanne, all the way up to Buffy season 7. As well as interviewing Joss at length, author Candace Havens has talked to virtually every member of the Buffy and Angel cast and crew (including Sarah Michelle Gellar and David Boreanaz) and the book is packed with amazing behind-the-scenes secrets from both shows! Illustrated throughout with rare shots of the Buffy/Angel stars!

About the Author

Candace Havens is a respected entertainment industry writer, based in the USA. She is a columnist for TV Data Features Syndicate, where she writes five weekly columns for an overall audience of 44 million readers. In preparation for this book, she conducted numerous interviews with Joss Whedon, and virtually every member of Buffy and Angel's cast and production team.

From Booklist

Writers, actors, and fans often call Joss Whedon a genius. It's easy to see why. Whedon, who got his start writing for Roseanne, dreamed of writing movie screenplays. He got his shot when he sold his script for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but the movie fell far short of his hopes for it. After a few years of working as a script doctor, Whedon got the chance to do Buffy again, this time as a TV show. Few expected it to succeed, but Whedon's humor and intelligence shone through in the scripts, and viewers quickly became attached to the engaging, witty characters. Buffy kept getting better: each season of the show featured a complex story arc possessed of a real sense of danger and further developed the characters. The last few years have brought the Buffy spinoff Angel, the lamentably cancelled Firefly (a space western), and the comic book Fray. Engaging and filled with fun quotes, this is a must-read for Whedon's many fans. Kristine Huntley
