The X-Files: Perihelion
By Claudia Gray
Summary:
Fox Mulder and Dana Scully are still
reeling from the death of their son William as they struggle to find purpose
away from the X-Files. Though their current relationship is tenuous, they hope
to seize their second chance to be a family, despite the many questions
surrounding Scully’s pregnancy.
Then the FBI asks for their help on a case that
hits all too close to home: a serial killer in the Washington, DC area who
targets pregnant women. The killer appears to possess a mysterious, uncanny
power over electricity, which is enough for the Bureau to re-open the
X-Files—if Mulder and Scully are willing.
They cautiously agree, concerned about the safety
of their own unborn child yet committed to finding justice for the killer’s
victims. But their return to the FBI sparks the interest of a shadowy cabal,
the heirs to the now-dead Syndicate, and Mulder and Scully soon discover that
what at first seems to be just another X-File is connected to a worldwide
threat on an unprecedented scale . . . one with their own future at its heart.
Review:4 Stars
As a die-hard fan of the X-Files I
really enjoyed this story, it felt like an old comfy blanket on a cold day for
the most part, but it wasn’t a page-turner, I could set it down and get other
things done and come back to it later The overall flow was great, The editing
was spot on. If it had been a page-turner which I couldn’t walk away from it
would have been a 5-star for sure.
