Title: engrossing
Product review: I have read all three of Rowley's books in this series numerous times. Rowley uses great imagination in creating this possible future and the Vang remain one of the most frightening alien life forms in science fiction - much more lethal than the 'Alien' type in my opinion. While remaining in a brief time period for his story line Rowley can casually allude to events stretching over vast aeons or relatively recently which tie in to the current action and make it so much more interesting in that context. An example is the reference to the Laowan Grotto of Bones in the Battlemaster story. It is a great pity that he didn't develop the theme into further books and it is surprising that he is not better known in this field. I think that if any or all of these three books were adapted for cinema and taken up by the major studios with the best special effects they would be great hits.
