| Bloopers: |
When being thrown through the wall
Piper and Phoebe do not land "on the grass outside" but are still in
the Manor Paige does not work in a "Social work clinic for abused kids" Phoebe and Leo decided to head to the underworld to seek Cole's help to get Tempus to reset time but the book ignores the fact that Phoebe went there first to try and free Cole from Raynor's spell. Prue's funeral did not take place in a mausoleum "car rolled over one night" The car accident that killed Paige's adoptive parents happened during the day (see 4x10) While the book says Shane has never been at Paige's place before only one page later Paige claims that Oscar, her parakeet, liked Shane before.It's not likely that she took the cage with her around, so how did she know? The speech at Prue's funeral is different |

|
Based on 4x01 and 02 it sticks to the script almost word
for word apart from few changes. Writing style is acceptable but nothing more.There is no deeper insight into the happenings or characters and while some things are explained for the nth time others are considered to be known by the reader - for those who know the TV episodes this book has nothing to offer and those who have not seen the episodes are better off watching them instead reading this book. |
