Totel Immersion - the comprehensive unauthorized Red Dwarf encyclopaedia

[sallycandance.livejournal.com]

A long time ago, this guy (Paul Giachetti) contacted the Red Dwarf LJ comm and asked for help. He said he was working on writing a complete Red Dwarf guide and that he was looking for a few books he still needed for that. One of those books happened to be in my possession, and so I gave it to him. I said he didn't need to pay me for it, I was happy to help a fellow Dwarfer and was excited for this book.

Paul sporadically kept in touch over the years with updates, and now finally his hard work is done. Imagine my surprise when he asked for my address to send me a free copy of the encyclopaedia. He said that in the end it was so much intel, he made two books...



The books are amazing! They have ALL the information, gorgeous artwork and tons and tons of interesting facts and background knowledge. Sources are the tv show, the Smegazines, the novels, the roleplaying game, and behind-the-scenes/deleted scenes material (every morsel of information comes with a resource reference). You can just tell that this was made by a fan for fans. I know it's late for Christmas presents, but I think this can be gifted/received at any time and will make the recipient infinitely happy.



You can find out more and order the books here!

Wow! I admit I was sceptical when I first heard about this project (just from looking at the fan wikis, etc. out there), but this looks great.

It is fantastic. Made with a lot of love and nerdiness, I think ^.^

Thanks for this! I knew about the project but wasn't sure it would be worth my while buying them as I already own guides and know the show back to front. But maybe I'll ask for them as a birthday present. :)

It's got intel from everything Red Dwarf - the role playing game, the Smegazines, the novels, the background information... It's just nice to have around, leaf through, or use as a handy reference when writing fics. I can only recommend it, but then again, I have a weakness for encyclopaedias (I collect them) lol

Fantastic. I got volume one from my sister-in-law for Christmas. I'll have to order volume two for myself. :)

Hey! Just found this, thank you so much for the kind words! I'm overwhelmed at the outpouring of love these books have received so far, it makes all the work worth it! So glad you guys are enjoying it, if series 11 is ever done, I'll be writing an addendum and putting it up on our website, so keep an eye out there!
