I just saw this on Fans of J.Michael Straczynski Facebook page and thought I pass it on to all those B5 fans that occasionally grace this blog of mine. Patricia Tallman   who played the character  of "Lyta Alexander" in the series Babylon 5  is releasing a book of her years on the set of Babylon 5 called "Pleasure Thresholds". The title comes from one her quotes on B5 which  Lyta  says to G'kar " Oh, and you mentioned wondering what my pleasure threshold is. I just recently found out ... I don't have one. Have a very, very nice day, G'Kar ". Besides her good looks and acting ability she probably got a boost in popularity  from her fans  with that line.

From what I can see it is truly a must have item of Babylon fans to have. It's a monster of a project it looks like  it is jammed packed with tons of features, photo's personal notes, video clips and more. I have pasted the book summery  below that I found on her site to give you an idea of what it contains. And its a pretty long one. Right now for a limited time there is a 20 dollar discount until September 27th and there is a little notation after that in the books website that states this book will never be discounted again. It is a 362 page book that contains  a disc with 9 videos, 2 audio features an autographed by Pat Tallman and J. Michael Straczynski plus the quote postcard. The book will sell for 69 dollars but if you preorder it by the time stated you can get it for 49 dollars.

This is a featured pack release of all the Star Wars films. For the first time ever you get to watch all those movies without any commercials all in a row at your leisure. Pretty cool. Add some 40 hours of bonus features and you have the most in debt collectors series to date. Since the package has so many extras I just copy pasted the main info from Star Wars. com (http://www.starwars.com/movies/saga/bluraymay4/). Heck almost every other site has.
