In Whedonistas, a host of award-winning female writers and fans come together to celebrate the works of Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly, Dollhouse, Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along Blog). By discussing the impact of Whedon's work, their involvement with his shows' fandoms and why they adore the worlds he's created, these essayists aim to misbehave in Whedon's rich, fantastical worlds. Essay topics include Sharon Shinn (Samaria series) and Emma Bull (Territory) elaborating on the perfection of Firefly, Jeanne Stein (the Anna Strong Chronicles) revealing Buffy's influence on Anna Strong, and Nancy Holder (October Rain, The Watcher's Guide) relating on-the-set tales of Spike menacing her baby daughter while Riley made her hot chocolate.Other contributors include Seanan McGuire (October Daye series), Elizabeth Bear (Chill), Catherynne M. Valente (Palimpsest), Maria Lima (Blood Lines), Jackie Kessler (Black and White), Mariah Huehner (IDW Comics), Sarah Monette (Corambis), and Lyda Morehouse (AngeLINK Series). Also featured is an exclusive interview with television writer and producer Jane Espenson.… (meer)
This collection of essays about all thinks Whedon is, like all collections, uneven but overall well done. For those of you out there who don't know about the work of Joss Whedon, and given that he directed the Avengers films I think most people have at least heard of him, this book explores his television work only, including "Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog." (I'm starting a blog. Would that mine would have Neil Patrick Harris singing, but I am not Joss Whedon). They explore his work as fans, writers, people of faith, feminists and people who watch way too much television. If you love him, this is worth your time. ( )
A set of mostly good stories about women who love Joss Whedon. Reminded me strongly of those old Chicken Soup books, but with things I could relate to versus the horrible things that usually happens in those books. A solid read. ( )

Thoughtful essays that analyze the works of Joss Whedon celebrate what he does right but also identify and discuss problematic areas in his body of work. ( )
