Title: Poorly Written and Uninteresting
Review: After reading the Technomage and Centauri trilogies, this the first book of the Bester trilogy was very disappointing. It seems to be poorly written, unentertaining, and understandable only by the most hard core of fans. Those other authors managed to write stories that almost stand on their own, even if you haven't seen Babylon 5 TV series you could get into their plot arcs, care about the characters and be entertained. Even worse it seems this novel entirely lacks the Straczynski-esque tone and humor of those other trilogies that really made Babylon 5 an epic story.This novel may be worthwhile to read only if you are a big fan of the series and you want to learn more canon background information. But a "technical manual" might make a more interesting read if that is your goal.
