5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent, Suspenseful Read, Dec 29 2010
By indy filmmaker - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Of Aged Angels (Mass Market Paperback)
Of Aged Angels is an intelligent, faced-paced read with some great action sequences and a treasure trove of fascinating fringe phenomenon to ruminate on. If you like UFOs, conspiracy theories, the Knights Templar, and whisperings of occult goings-on, then this book is for you. Cook delivers a taut novel of suspense around a fascinating premise, the return of mysterious beings to our world and a deadly struggle for power. With brilliant hackers, men in black, beings with mysterious technology, cryptid creatures and excellent writing, this book has it all.
You can tell Cook has put a lot of work into maintaining accuracy in this book. The conspiracy theories, UFOs, and other fascinating fringe theory he uses in this book are all carefully researched. I read another book of his on the subject, "The Skeptic's Guide To Conspiracies," and it was a great read, chock-full of information on men in black and other theories highlighted in Of Aged Angels.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Rennes le Chateau + Oak Island, Jun 7 2009
By Sam Crawford - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Of Aged Angels (Mass Market Paperback)
This was the last book published in the series. There's a book 5 floating around the internet somewhere - it was only available as a download from the Wizards of the Coast.
That's understandable as this book is only average. The character development was sub-par, the action was bland, and the plot was only average. I really had higher hops for this since Monte Cook helped write the Dark Matter setting. I see where he was trying to tie together some ultraterrestrials with the Hoffman Institute and run some action from Roslyn Chapel to Rennes le Chateau to Oak Island. Somehow, though, it didn't come together too well.
Nonetheless, I think this would make a great Dark Matter scenario if your Game Master is so inclined to work it out.
Listmania!
