Hi everybody,,

Recently i bought the Dutch version off the book, written by Roger Bowler: "Magnum, het verhaal van de Tv-Serie" what means "Magnum, the Story of the Television show".

It includes the story off the pilot episode. It's in good shape.

Wow, very cool Jeffrey. I've never heard of it. I do believe Roger Bowler wrote the early MPI mass market paperback book, however.

Any good anecdotes you'd like to share?

Oke,

The story includes the pilot epside (Dont eat the snow in Hawaii). It all begins in Saigon, were Magnum has to solve a abuse case. The young woman was abused by one of the four american soldiers. Everybody seems to have his problem. Some can not even abuse her. They all have ther reasons for it......... But finally he finds out who it was.

Then a story about Phillipe (La Bulle) starts. The book tells how he lived in his younger years, and that i finally joined the army.

Then at page 66, the episode-story starts...
