The Pequod Review:

XTC: Chalkhills and Children is a comprehensive if workmanlike biography, probably only of interest to serious fans. XTC was responsible for some of the finest music in modern rock history but seems to have fallen through the cracks, having only a couple of radio-friendly hits and no masterpiece albums that would merit the 33 1/3-type treatment. Hopefully that changes since they are a perfect candidate for rediscovery in the Spotify era.
