Summary: A good effort
Comment: Quite often, publishers of media tie-in books and producers of media product want to make sure they market their product as quickly as possible, which is why early efforts in successful and not successful media tie-in novels are not up to par. This is the case with Leather Wings. The story on the whole is interesting, albeit a little thin, but where the novel fails is in the capturing of the characters' personalities. A media tie-in novel is most successful when you can visualize your favorite character speaking and behaving in the way described in the novel. This is not the case with this work as the characters' dominent trait is brought out and then the reader is beaten over the head with it. In the series, Devon Adair is determined to get to New Pacifica, but she is not blinded to what is happening around her. In this book, she is quite blind and I find it hard to beleive why anyone would follow her. The author admits the show wasn't even on the air at the time he wrote it, and I give him credit for trying, but it would be nice if these series waited a while before engaging in media tie-ins.

Summary: I miss Earth 2
Comment: I really liked the TV show and sorely miss it. I am therefore ever grateful to the few authors who have written anything on the show, hence the extra star. It is only really a 2 star book, Vornholt has done better before and worse! Out of all the Earth 2 books out there, I personally prefer the Sean Dalton novel Puzzle because he has the characters right. Earth 2 : Leather Wings by Vornholt is an okay book. The colonists arrive at an enormous canyon which stretches as far as the eye can see in either direction. Way down below a river rages. Somehow they must find a way across.
