Description

How did Fox Mulder become a believer? How did Dana Scully become a skeptic? The X-Files Origins has the answers in this young adult origin story.

The X-Files Origins: Devil's Advocate explores the teen years of Dana Scully, the beloved character depicted in the cult-favorite TV show The X-Files. Her story is set in the spring of 1979, when serial murder, the occult, and government conspiracy were highlighted in the news. The book follows Scully as she experiences life-changing events that set her on the path to becoming an FBI agent.

disappointing

I hate to give this a 3, but... I didn't love it. And I love The X-Files. Part of it was, I the narrator had, well, an annoying voice. A very annoying voice. That didn't help.
There was something weird about the writing, too. Which is weird, because I like Jonathan Maberry. But the tone was off. I know this was a YA, more or less, but it the adolescent voice didn't feel authentic. And Scully didn't quite feel like Scully. Almost, but there was something off, and not just because she's 15, here. (Melissa, too, actually.)
There were parts that I liked- the mystery was pretty solid, and I liked some of the secondary characters (Grandma, Angelo). It was suitably sinister.
But for this to be Scully's origin story? It just wasn't great. She gets disillusioned by a "psychic" shop owner who she discovers to be a fraud. She had looked up to and admired her and wanted to believe in her abilities, and was crushed when she discovered that she was a selfish con artist. How anticlimactic! The murders, the weird cult-y elements, the devious and deluded villain, they were interesting, but the fact that the crucialitsr turning point in Dana’s life, what made her a skeptic, was realizing that the "psychic" was actually just a clever eavesdropper? Unsatisfying.
