1.0 out of 5 stars
Clumsy and disappointing,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oblivion (New Adventures Ser.) (Paperback)
Dave Stone's past works have always been witty, fast-paced, and mind-bending; it's with that in mind that OBLIVION is all the more disappointing. Characters are thrown into the mix with no rhyme or reason (other than, it seems, to have a reunion of all surviving characters from Stone's SKY PIRATES!), the plot thuds along, and the resolution is dull as dishwater.A book about trying to avert the destruction of the universe should be exciting. Instead, you're forced to read about a formerly married couple bickering non-stop while unnecessary characters stop by for no particular reason. Watching paint dry is distinctly more interesting. The description of OBLIVION sounded wonderful; the execution, unfortunately, is anything but. Stone is capable of a lot better than this. |
