4.0 out of 5 stars better and more original than the 5th element

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
After reading a review of this book I bought it in the expectation it would be a similar mixture to the fifth element. Instead its full of mystic mumbo jumbo that's not even interesting to read.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Free SF Readernot free sf reader,n, September 3, 2007
This review is from: The Gaia War (Paperback)
A quite poor attempt at a story that has been done before.

A woman ends up being created to save the world due to an obsession, but is that what she is really up to?
