I had hoped, in reading this, to get a lot more information than even what was in the movie, but there really wasn't much, just a few details here and there and different bits from the different POVs of the characters. But it was still Serenity and I love it. So many great parts, and sad parts, but the best is the end when Mal is explaining to River about the first rule of flying - love. The ship Serenity is not just an object for the characters to get from one place to another. Serenity is another character, and over the course of the television show, the movie, and the book, I grew to care about her just as much as I did her crew.

A great books for Browncoats, also a great way to introduce people to the serenity universe. I loved this as much as the movie, especially the Mal and Inara interactions.

Overall a good novelization of the movie. What makes it standout is the fact that Decandido constantly switched the reader's viewpoint from one character to another in order to give you a better perspective of the story. he also filled in some gaps to help the book flow better. The only downside is they still haven't gone into detail about Sheperd Book's past ( I personally believe he was once an operative).

I truly enjoyed this book. It seems to be a very close representation of the motion picture screen play. A must-read for Firefly lovers.

Novelization of the movie. Provides a little extra backstory that Firefly fans will appreciate.

This book is a novelization of the movie Serenity which is based on the Firefly series by Joss Whedon.

It is a must have for the browncoats. The book uses the dialogue from the movie which is Joss's unintentional contribution to this book.

So it follows the movie faithfully, but I think it adds a bit to it. He does a great job of interpreting facial expressions of the various characters.

In my opinion this book does not add much to the movie.
