Abstract
This paper deals with the representation of books in serialized sci-fi TV series with an ongoing plot constructed in a teleologic fashion. It explores issues of narrative unity and self-reflexive writing introduced by the books appearing in Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5 and Doctor Who; it also looks at the legitimizing power of books, and the generic tension caused by the presence of prophetic books in a sci-fi universe.
