Reviews"For more than 60 years, viewers have watched Godzilla surface from the ocean'sdepths, disintegrate world landmarks with its atomic breath, and trample citieswhile wrestling with other oversized monsters. Horror film actor/director/writerSkipper traces Godzilla's cinematic history film-by-film, organized by eras namedafter Japan's ruling emperors (a convention of the Godzilla franchise). Skipperprovides information about the cast and crew before writing about each film, oftenhighlighting costume details, audience reception, and themes for each era. TheShowa Era launched the franchise and led to more family-friendly fare than thelater Heisei Era, where Godzilla vs. Biollante would pit Godzilla against a lab-created nightmare of teeth and tentacles. Since this is an officially licensed book,Skipper finds charitable things to say even when describing more poorly receivedentries. Dedicated fans will be more adept at following the plot summaries of afranchise that rejects continuity, but the gorgeous illustrations will have widerappeal. Movie posters, stills, and production photographs make for a stunning artbook. Skipper also pleases completists in his coverage of Godzilla's small-screenand video game adventures. VERDICT Lavish with illustrations and praise, this book is geared toward fans butSkipper's engaging writing is accessible for newcomers." - Library Journal
