Negative Positive
Title: Excellent plot, exciting themes!
Review: I have long been a fan of Jensen's Gabriel Knight mysteries, but was leery of her seeming millenial frenzy. Don't let the cheesy title scare you off! This is a great thriller - it's what I would imagine it would be like if The X-Files investigated the Apocalypse. Even halfway through the book when a big chunk of information is revealed, Jensen keeps you guessing until the last chapter, when you finally understand how all the details (seemingly thrown in for background) fit together.The themes of redemption, trust, faith, and honor run throughout. No one is evil or saintly - the reader can at least understand, if not agree with, all motivations. Deauchez's personal journey - from skepticism to faith in the human spirit - really drives the story.This is not just a religious or apocalypse novel (and doesn't have too much to do with the millenium). You won't want to put it down!
