gingerreader99's review against another edition
4.0
I will gladly give this 4 stars. I really wasn't sure at first but the book got better as it progressed. I also found myself quite fond of Roz and Cwej(I enjoyed the joking about his name). Overall it was a solid and exciting adventure and I enjoyed the connection to a previous adventure as well.

http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/2069151.html[return][return]Andy Lane has rarely disappointed me, and this New Adventure, introducing new companions Roz Forrester and Chris Cwej, is up to his usual standards, with lots of good ideas - mollusc-like aliens resenting their recent defeat by humanity; a peculiar radiation that induces homicidal psychosis in its victims; a richly imagined array of settings, including a bootleg medical centre in the former church of St James Garlickhythe; and the rather glorious return of an old enemy who has been very active behind the scenes for centuries - all disciplined reasonably well.
