5.0 out of 5 stars Pairing Steed with Emma endangers his heart.
Kaewert's novelization is the best fictional Avengers book I have read. She skillfully provides a context- Emma, recently widowed, is determined to keep Steed at arms length. He has other intentions. The author offers insights into both characters: Emma's overachievements are due to a cold, distant father, Steed's reserve is ruffled when he begins to fall for...

5.0 out of 5 stars Pairing Steed with Emma endangers his heart., October 28, 1999
By A Customer
Kaewert's novelization is the best fictional Avengers book I have read. She skillfully provides a context- Emma, recently widowed, is determined to keep Steed at arms length. He has other intentions. The author offers insights into both characters: Emma's overachievements are due to a cold, distant father, Steed's reserve is ruffled when he begins to fall for her. Kaewert provides motivation for all of the characters: deWinter, brutalized at "public" school, remains an emotioanal child in a man's body. His obsession with Emma arouses the jealousy of two women determined to see her dead Steed and Emma's growing emotional intimacy is threatened by false accusations against Emma, kidnapping etc. The film producers should have had Kaewert help them link scenes and the script. The movie was good but the editing was horrendous. I recommend the novel to all Avengers lovers, and Kaewert's Alex Plumtree mysteries to anyone who appreciates a literary mystery.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Storyline, July 16, 1998
By A Customer
Written in the not so serious style of the Avengers world. As long as you don't analyze the science behind the story, it makes for a good read, especially if you grew up watching Avengers repeats as I did. If the movie stays true to the story, it should do ok!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Avengers storyline, July 12, 1998
By A Customer
The book takes the story of the Avengers and updates it into the 90's, slightly off center of course. Steed keeps his British tradition going, while Emma Peel represents the future for the service. Worth reading if you're a fan of the Avengers. If the movie stays close to the storyline, it should be worth seeing on the screen.
