A must own!"<BR>--Michael C. Gross, Producer, Ghostbusters/Ghostbusters II <BR>"This sumptuous, luscious love letter to Ghostbusters is just like the film it chronicles: hilarious, sweet, irreverent, and thrilling. I read it from cover to cover as soon as it arrived. And I'm in it!! (Sorry my costume isn't that accurate)."<BR>--Adam Savage, Mythbusters <BR>"A comprehensive, absolutely beautiful book. Brought back many good memories for me. I don t know how they can produce such an elaborate book at this price."<BR>--Joe Medjuck, Producer, Ghostbusters/Ghostbusters II <BR>""Ghostbusters: The Ultimate Visual History" has done what it set out to do and with honors. Its title is no misnomer. If this generation doesn t get a sequel to be proud of, it will still have this publication to at least remember Ghostbusters as a franchise to fondly anticipate. It s a title for youth, it s a title for adults; this is a book for any and every diehard Ghostbusters fan."<BR>--David Kobylanski, Collider.com <BR> With behind the scenes stories, concept art that s never been seen by the public, an intro written by Ivan Reitman himself (plus a foreword by Dan Aykroyd!), this just might be holy grail of gifts for any GB fan in your life. <BR>--Blake Rodgers, Nerdist <BR>""Ghostbusters: The Ultimate Visual History" is a terrific backwards look at how a silly 1984 comedy was, to quote Dan Aykroyd s foreword, 'visually enlivened' into legend... With full access to the Ghostbusters archives, which we assume are guarded by Terror Dogs, this is a chronicle filled with revelations."<BR>--Nick De Semlyen, Empire Online<BR>"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Daniel Wallace</b> is the author or coauthor of more than fifty books, including <i>The Jedi Path</i>, <i>Ghostbusters: The Ultimate Visual History</i>, <i>The World According to Spider-Man</i>, <i>Warcraft: Behind the Dark Portal</i>, <i>Star Wars: The Lightsaber Collection</i>, and The New York Times best-selling <i>Star Wars: The New Essential Guide to Characters.</i> His specialty is exploring the underpinnings of popular fictional universes. <p/>Dan Aykroyd is a Blues Brother, a Ghostbuster, a Conehead, a Grammy and Oscar nominee, in addition to being awarded an Emmy for writing on SNL.
