Godzilla Review Books

Post by H-Man »

We've had a handful of self-published review books in recent years. I know several of them have been reviewed at the main site. Who here has purchased them and what did you think?

Titans of Toho: An Unauthorized Guide to the Godzilla Series and the Rest of Toho's Giant Monster Film Library

There Goes Tokyo! A Celebration of Kaiju Eiga

Memories From Monster Island: A Fun Stomp Through Toho's Godzilla Films

Godzilla Reviewed (2021 Edition)

That's my question. The reviews at the site weren't very positive. But I'd like to hear from others. These are the cheapest G books on Amazon Brasil at the moment.

It’s all opinion based, unless you actually like reading the opinions of others enough to pay to do so, I’d suggest not buying

Eh. At this point in my life if I really wanted opinions of random people on these films, I'd listen to someone yammer over at YouTube for free.

It is. That's why I don't do that either.
