The necessary and pre-existing Starcraft lore doesn't feels forced and the new lore is introduced in a very neat flow. An easy stand-alone even for those unfamiliar with the Starcraft univserse and a must for those who are. A great story set in the Starcraft universe. The action is detailed fairly well and is relatively creative. Easily one of the better works among Blizzard's adapted novels.Allowing Golden to write the whole series pays off nicely for Blizzard here as it clearly shows in the quality of the story. The series is well-paced, has plenty of action, and incorporates Starcraft lore in a very clean fashion. Compared to Blizzard's other adapted novels, this series is extremely well written and easily one of their best.Rosemary's story is touched on much more here in the second novel and her flaws and growth as a character by the end of the series easily made her my favorite character. The Protoss story unfolds more as well and begins to cover parts of the history that fans are more familiar with and fans will enjoy learning about the enigmatic Protoss as much as new readers will enjoy learning about this proud race.
Woa, not expecting that.The first book was fun, but things got real in this one.Tons of Protoss lore, kinda complex stories, great deep characters introduced, fun battles and plot, and an awesome exciting ending battle; all that makes for a badass read. Out of the three books in the series this was my personal favourite, surely cause it was the 'middle' book: it has more plot added so it wasn't boring (doesn't feel like an intro or an ending; just a nice plot/action packed book).One of the best I've read in the entire Starcraft collection for sure; and the best out of the three Dark Templar saga books.
This book was an incredible read, i would highly recommend this to anyone who's even vaguely interested in the Star Craft universe. It took me some effort just to put the thing down without finishing it in one go.
this book continues the story of the first book quite well, and provides an experience that any star craft lover will enjoy if they care to know the history of the protoss and they desire a link to star craft 2.
What some fan's may not know is that these books are encompassing characters and an overall storyline that will be part of the upcoming sequel, Starcraft 2. This trilogy is a wonderful creation of cannon, produced by a true professional in the area of Science Fiction literature.From start to finish, the author's main goal is to always ensure the reader is fully immersed in the environment to give a sense of actually being there with the characters. Due to the unique nature of what is being described in the book, it is necessary to not only display a proper mental image of the surroundings inside the story, but to also give deep insight into the emotional and psychological aspects of not only human but zerg and protoss characters as well.Truly a wonderful book.
