This book is a very well recount of the production and post release life of "Blade Runner", however at times it is exhaustively detailed, I personally didn't need the chapter recounting the whole plot of the movie, analysis is one thing, but the very long summary was somewhat overkill (the author even wrote suggesting to skip the chapter and come back to it as you wish) and I didn't need as much detail about the DVD developments. Honestly, I was hoping this would have more on the production of "Blade Runner 2049" due to the cover advertising new material on that film, but one can tell this book was somewhat rushed to publication to be out before the sequel's release. There were numerous typos, especially in the back of the book where they seemed to be on every page that read like the copy editor didn't have enough time to go through and fix them.
