  <default_description>All Sydney ever wanted was acceptance.

Friends who cared about her. Parents who loved her. A place where she could fit in.

SD-6 gave Sydney what she needed. A family. A purpose. A reason for her life.

But there's a price to pay for such a precious necessity.

And so it begins.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Believe it or not, I actually found this book at a Garage Sale! What a lucky find for me! I had recently bought &quot;Alias Season 1&quot; on DVD and had a feeling from the show's intro there had to be more to the story. The intro sums things up from this book pretty well, and adds a couple pictures...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/67381722">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A nice prequel that explained how Sydney Bristow was recruited into SD-6. However I actually expected the book to be a novelization of the pilot TRUTH BE TOLD. Still im glad how the story had turned out.<br/><br/>In fact it actually reminded me what was it like reading CHARMED few years back then....<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/68664768">more...</a>]]></body>

The first 3/4 were entertaining, though a bit... sappy/romatic/girly (moreso than the show) Unfortunately, the last end goes far too unbelievable/slapdash (also moreso than the show). Still, it's of interest as it's not &quot;just an a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3354602">more...</a>]]></body>
