Summary: An utmost fantastic novel!
Comment: Not only would I highly recommend this novel to all Fantastic Four fans, I would also strongly recommend it to those who are fans of Mr. Fantastic. This book proved how he could pull off having his own solo limited or ongoing comic series. Also worth mentioning was how the characterizations of all members of the F4 were done right, unlike in their current comic series. If you have only to buy one Fantastic Four novel in your lifetime, make this one it.
Rating: 5
Summary: Better then the Fantastic Four comic
Comment: I think for the last several years now, the Fantastic Four novels have been better written then the comic. Case in point is this novel by Pierce Askegren. This writer makes good use of many leading FF characters that first appeared in the Stan Lee/Jack Kirby FF issues. The mad thinker is a complex villain here, Black Bolt and the Inhumans play important roles in the story, and the Fantastic Four are presented as the human heroes that they are. No fancy gimmicks here. It's a straight forward story from start to finish, and I'm very grateful for that.

Summary: wow -- what a great book!
Comment: Michael Jan Friedman's _Redemption of the Silver Surfer_ has been getting all the attention, but I think Pierce Askegren's _Countdown to Chaos_ is even better. The characterizations are all perfect, especially the Thing, and the plot is _much_ more interesting (and complicated!) than the usual villain-takes-over-the-world kind of stuff. Plus, it's much better than the comic book has been in about fifteen years. Don't let this great book pass you by!
