The third book in The Technocrat War trilogy. This book was a flawless as the first two except for the end which crushed the book. I have no idea what happened here. The book was full of so much good dialogue, plot intrigue, well written paragraphs but in the last two chapters it was like a totally differant person was writing. It really did ruin the book for me. I don't know how to describe it... Maybe the most fantastic meal you've ever seen laying before you only to find that it's been attacked by flies and now it's crawling with maggots.

I give this book 3 out of 5 stars. Damn you Austen Andrews! What were you thinking?

I have to admit that I am a bit hard on books.. if I dont like them, I stop someplace right in the first chapter. Well, I read all of Mr Andrews books for the Ultima series and loved them... his writing is fun, the depth to the universe he weaves is perfect and it made me want to go diving into the world that is Ultima.

I had the pleasure of meeting the author and talking with him at length a few years ago and he is one of the nicest guys I have ever met. He is well spoken, well read and I really hope he comes out with more books in either this series or others. His work is the type of work that I like to follow and I hope to be following it for years to come.

Awesome work!! It makes me wish they had finished UO2 or UXO!

well um, uh, this book was great, I think. Well, there was some, umm, good character development, and uh, cool action scenes. One of the, um coolest scenes, was uh where there was this fight, and uh......um......,lemme think....... oh yeah, and the bad guy almost won, this uh, fight, and then uh the good guys friend comes in, yeah thats it, and then a they beat the bad guy, and uh celebrate by renting uh, Ferris Buelers Day Off at Block
Buster. It was really exciting, you should buy it, oh yeah and also buy that,uh, Ferris Bueler movie, its pretty cool. I watched that movie uh, whats after seven, oh yeah, 8 times in one day. All in all I give Ferris Bueler five stars. Im gonna go watch that movie now bye bye. oh yeah , and uh the book was cool too, I think, i give it uh, five and a half stars! Yay!
