- Laser Disc Companion is quite useful and used to be the only book
- available devoted to LD reviews (it is a compilation of most of the
- reviews which have previously appeared in LDN).
-
- Today I discovered another book:
-
- THE LASERDISC FILM GUIDE by Jeff Rovin. St. Martin's Press, NY.
- Publication date is given as 'February 1993' but I bought one in a
- bookstore today. List is $16.
-
- It covers about 300 discs -mostly the top ones and a few classic
- "turkeys." The reviews look very thorough. I haven't had time to
- compare them to my own experiences or to other reviews.
