4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, January 11, 2003
I read this book several years ago while the plot of the television series was still young, season 2 or 3. The book is consistant with that timeline, which has been screwed up, spun around, and dumped upside-down since then. Around the same time I also read the Ru Emmerson books, and I do like this book much better than those as they are not consistant to the Xena timeline/plot and cannot stand alone-you would have to read the first and then the second and so on to understand everything that's going on. This is a stand-on-its-own kind of book and has a Xena-like plot to it. One problem that seems consistant to me in the published Xena novels is lack of emotion. This book held more emotion than the Ru Emmerson books.
If you want a good, stand on its own Xena adventure, this is the book for you. If you want a Xena adventure the provokes serious emotions and feelings, as the show itself often did, you may want to consider online fan fiction.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST XENA NOVEL, July 19, 1999
By A Customer
This book is by far the best xena novel. But in some of these summaries below they say xena doesn't crack jokes in the tv series. Well they must be a one time viewer!!! In this book she DOES crack jokes so HA HA (and if you watch the series you'll note that xena does cracks jokes.) This book is the greatest xena novel you can find (so far). I liked Ru Emerson's xena novels but she just wrote on and on and it took her almost the entire novel to get some action. This story is the closest book I have read to the seires it had jokes, it had action, and I felt like I was reading something written by one of the directors of the show! This book was great and worth every penny!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't capture Xena Gabrielle characters, March 11, 2000
This book did a poor job of conveying the essences of Xena's and Gabrielles characters-especially compared with the Ru Emerson books. In this book Gabrielle does too much simpering and is too much a little girl-no thought is given to what makes Gabrielle and Xena a team. And the sexual tension between them is totally absent-this book seems more geared towards the young male audience than both the tv show and the Ru Emerson books-which I highly recommend-especially if you didn't like this one.
