This review is from: The Baxter Effect (Fantastic Four) (Mass Market Paperback)
I had never thought I'd read a prose novel spin-off of a comic book series until very recently. My friend John Picacio painted the cover to X-Men: The Return, so I gave that book a try. I got a real kick out of the X-Men book so I thought I'd try The Baxter Effect. Overall, it's a quick, fun read. I do have one serious problem with the book which keeps me from rating it higher. At a certain point, the story shifts to an alternate reality and the team goes through some major changes. I couldn't tell what the physical changes to Ben and Reed were. It was almost the end of the book before I was sure how Ben's body had changed. Since the entire story is told from Ben's point of view, the author should have done a better job of conveying this information to the reader. I realize that in the alternate timeline Ben didn't know he had changed, but we should have been able to tell. Despite this problem, I would read another Fantastic Four novel by the same author.
