Rating: 5
Summary: An entertaining read!
Comment: BANG! A bit far fetched, but an excellent book. This was not your typical Shadowrun novel, but it was so vibrant and alive that you could not help but like it. I feel Pollatta is a great addition to the Shadowrun world. The question seems to be: Where from here? Can his next book be bigger? Should it even try?
Rating: 4
Summary: A surprisingly good book.
Comment: Indeed, this book may shock you. Nicholas Pollota used a very unusual format for telling the story. I'm sure you've read books in which every other chapter is told from a different character's perspective, but Pollota takes it one step further. About three times in the book, who you think is the main character dies. It makes for some interesting reading and is very insiteful into the views of each character. One thing puzzled me though. The end was not what I expected. However, I'm sure any fan of Shadowrun would enjoy this book.
Rating: 1
Summary: Author should have read the canon material.
Comment: This is well known to be one of the worst Shadowrun novels written to date. There are a lot of side stories that are never explained, the introduction character has absolutely nothing to do with the story later on. In many cases he simply ignored what has been written about Shadowrun but in the novels and in the role-playing game. Part of his introduction hook was to give pity to a dwarf that used to be human but goblinized. In the canon material for Shadowrun that didn't happen to dwarves and elves, only to trolls and orks. The ending of the book just feels completely wrong as well. More or less everybody loses but they all seem content with that. Only reason I'd suggest reading this is to see what not to do.
