Honestly I didn't know what to expect when I picked up this book the other day. I was pleasantly surprised to find a well written, easy visualized story. The characters were fleshed out pretty well, and the plot line has some pretty intense moments. I hadn't read the book that preceded this one, but I am definitely going to pick it up. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wanted more after the T3 movie credits rolled.

As a follow-up to his book, Terminator Dreams, Aaron Alston once again works his magic to resurrect the Terminator story from the disaster that was T3. Allston's clear strong point that makes him the "best" Terminator writer (yes, even better than Stirling) is his apparent depth of knowledge of technology and how computer systems and high-end technology works. In "Hunt," he describes Skynet's and the T-X's technology in vivid detail that really captures the reader and makes you believe that the science-fiction is "real science." His characters which are carried over from Terminator Dreams are very real and he is able to build attachments. "Glitch," the captured and re-programmed T-850 becomes a very "human" character that the reader really attaches to. This is a great stand alone story more properly viewed as an "episode" rather than a link to the overall Terminator storyline. Well worth the time!

Any Sci-Fi readers must read this series. AWESOME. There is also a television series that is completely different. This is the most serious effort on one persons part to bring this idea to a whole new level. Wow, did they ever. Not what you expect.

My Husband actually likes these books and he is 40. He is a big fan of the Terminator series. He said that these books are written pretty good.

The terminator series are good but this was way down the river. It did have a better storyline than the previous terminator 3 novel. where was the action. It was to quick and not very descriptive. I do not recommend this book to any terminator fans
in the least.
