review 1: I am in awe of people like Joss Whedon - and they are few and far between. For me personally, it's all about his storytelling. To read a biography on a master storyteller is awesome because we hear all other (very prominent / famous) voices - the Nathan Fillions and the Neil Patrick Harrises and the Robert Downey Jrs - speak of the wondrous Mr Whedon in harmony, which makes up for the fact that we don't actually get to hear Joss' story in his own voice. It was a great read, in spite of a few typos / grammar issues here and there, but then the thing is, anything about Joss Whedon is usually a great read... I can't wait until I go on holiday later this year so that I can re-read it at the beach.
review 2: Delightful! Full of fun facts and anecdotes about the mak... moreing of the whole entire Whedonverse. If you're an avid Whedonite (like my husband), you will probably know a lot of those anecdotes already...which is a little unfortunate, but the stories really are fun to read, so it's probably not a big deal. :) The huge amounts of praise for Joss by others got to be a bit much at times (we KNOW he's awesome, you don't have to keep beating us over the head with it!), but that's my only real complaint. less
