5.0 out of 5 stars An excelent, if somewhat unnerving, sequel to a great book., June 12, 2001
By 
J. C. Foster (Overland Park, KS United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The moreau books can be read individually, but this is the only direct sequel in the series (so far). Picking up about 15 years after the first, things start off bad and only get worse. Swann seems to have a bit of a formula here, and his books are almost predictable in ther chaotic messiness, but you know what? It works.

My heart sank when I found out that my favorite part of the first book, Nohar and Stephie's love story, didn't make it. But the book was still next to impossible to put down. I read it and the first book in just a few nights and was exausted. The tension just sucks the life out of you. And if you thought the first book was intense (and painful), HA! You haven't seen anything yet. The punishment Nohar takes in this book is unreal. You practically have bruises just from reading it.

Secrets and people from the past emerge to make Nohar's life hell, and as a character I feel that he grows just as much here as he did in the first book. And while the future looks bleaker than ever, there still seems to be a ray of hope.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fur, action and surprises, April 8, 1999
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
If you've read the three previous books in the series ("Forests of the Night", "Emperors of the Twilight" and "Spectres of the Dawn"), you know about what to expect - a mystery plot that leads to several twists and surprises, and a lot of action and suspense, all set in the late 21st century Earth where many of the inhabitants are genetically engineers animal-morphs (Moreaus) who were originally created to fight wars but who still survive and are treated as second-class citizens by most humans. In case you haven't read the previous installments, Swann does a pretty good job of filling in the relevant background information, but be aware that much of that information will be spoilers if you later go back and read the first three books, especially the first, "Forests of the Night", which also features Nohar Rajasthan as the lead character (the other two have different main characters).

The book was hard to put down, and all the action and plot twists worked pretty well, to a point, but starting somewhere around three fourths of the way through the book it felt like the author was overreaching, trying too hard to escalate the tension, pushing things too close to the edge, and as a result the ending didn't work as well for me as it could have. But boy!, what a thrill ride this book was. If you like sci-fi action thrillers, read this book. Read the other three of the series while you're at it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nohar's back! And are we glad!, October 4, 1999
By A Customer
Oh,it's so -good- to have another book about Nohar Rajasthan. And this is a real page-turner, too. Body and mind, Nohar is one of the most interesting beings to come up the pike in some time, and I'm really glad to see him back. He takes a lot of punishment in this one, and he's getting old--Swann had better work on that age problem. I'd like to see Nohar go on and on.
