Library's review
USA, ca 1995
FBI-agenterne Fox Mulder og Dana Scully mødes for første gang. Dana Scully er sat på opgaven af chefen Jones, der gerne vil have en ærlig bedømmelse af Mulders ideer. De udforsker en stribe dødsfald/sindssyge, der ser ud til at have ramt en hel del unge, der har gået i skole
De finder en kiste med et underligt dødt væsen i, der vist er født af Peggy O'Dell efter at hun var i kløerne på et rumvæsen. Senere brænder byens beboere både liget af væsenet og mange af de beviser, Mulder og Scully har indsamlet. En lille cylinder fundet i væsenets næse er dog bevaret og Scully giver det videre til Jones, der arkiverer det sammen med fire andre. Scullys rapport bliver til gengæld makuleret og brændt.
Mulder og Scully finder ud af at det nok er Billy Miles, der kan stoppe tiden og flytte rundt på de andre imens. Billy har ellers ligget i tilsyneladende koma på et hospital i årevis, men nu kommer han til sig selv og hans far, patruljebetjent Miles, bliver vældig glad.
Mulder afslører for Scully at han er optaget af X-files, fordi hans søster blev bortført af rumvæsener, da de var små. Hun blev aldrig fundet igen og Mulder havde fortrængt minderne om det.
Lidt "Men in Black"-agtig men uden humoren. Plottet hænger ikke sammen, med mindre man tror på sorte helikoptere og ufoer, så tilbage er Scully og Mulder, der vapper rundt og foretager sig noget uden mening på en meningsløs måde. .
Følg med i serien. Måske hænger plottet sammen i næste afsnit?

Description
The FBI thinks Agent Fox Mulder is weird - or worse. He keeps insisting that aliens are running amok on earth. Mulder's theories about the high school class of '89 are beyond strange. But he may just be the one with the answers that nobody is ready to hear.

This is a juvenile adaptation of the beginning of the X-Files. If I can trust my memory, this is a novelization of the first episode that introduced us to Mulder and Scully. I picked this up years ago, being a fan of the series, but never got around to giving it a read until now. It is enjoyable,

but is geared to ages 10-up so written simply, and simply told. For those who remember the series, this is the episode where Scully is assigned to monitor Mulder, and they go off to Oregon to investigate the death of a young woman who bears strange markings that Mulder has seen on other unexplained deaths across the country. The cause of death is unknown, but we see her die while enveloped in a whirlwind and bright light in the forest. Then we discover she was not the first of the high school class of '89 to die. A good, quick and very light read. Show Less

Yes, random I know. It was the only book with a title starting with X that I could find. I imagined a title like that being a pirate book, but it only cost me $2 on Amazon. How can you not scoop that up?
I’ve never watched the X Files series. I like ghost stories and Men in Black but this was
In X Marks the Spot, Agent Scully and Agent Mulder meet. They both work for the FBI. Right now Scully is teaching a class and Mulder, well they are trying to squash what he is doing. He is one of the best murder investigators of all time, but likes to spend his time with the “others”. Scully is asked to spend some time with Mulder, take notes and bring them back to the big wigs so they can finally put this X Files madness to rest. Problem is, when they go on their first story, Scully isn’t sure what she believes and doesn’t believe anymore when multiple members from the Class of ‘89 are dying.
This book was ok. Once you get to a certain point, if you’re into mystery books, you can guess who the host is.
I know this is silly, but I think I’m allergic to the book. As I mentioned, I ordered it from Amazon. It was printed in 1995 and I’m not sure where it’s been sitting since then. The pages are definitely yellow and something within them keeps making me sneeze. It happened the first night I read it and I laughed because I couldn’t be allergic to it, but then last night the same thing happened, and actually as I write this, and have been flipping through the book, my nose is running. I can’t let that judge my review though
This book did make me want to watch the series. If I see it on in the future, I will check it out. I give the book 2 bookmarks.

never a show I got into. I thought the book series came first, but on the cover it says it’s “based on the television series.” So if anyone watched the show, the books would probably repeat.In X Marks the Spot, Agent Scully and Agent Mulder meet.
