When a rebellious member of the Ragnarville Trust discovers a subterranean laser-fusion plant dating back to before the nuclear holocaust, he devises a plan to take over the ville. But by restarting the fusion process to power his stronghold and create a holographic assassin, he also unknowingly initiates the self-destruction mechanism in the plant. Kane and his team are sent by Redoubt to handle the situation--and find themselves at war with the rebel forces, an unstoppable killer and a doomsday program set to destroy the Earth a second time.

I thought this was an excellent book with an unusual angle, focusing on the tragic love Roberta/Tara felt for the evil Barch.
The concept of a holographic assassin with particles of anti-matter mixed in with her energy field was very original.When Tara's primary programming kicked in and she and went on a slaughter spree against those who had been using her--yikes!
I really liked the way Brigid reached her by appealing to her human counterpart's broken heart.That part of it was a real tear-jerker.
This was a great book from the opening chapters in the steamy swamps of Louisana to the explosive climax in snowy Alaska.

Unanswered questions answered at last!
Oct 5 1998

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Way back in the beginning of the Deathlands series, the author gave us our first glimps into Zulu Redoubt. An inbred family tried very hard to kill Ryan and his band. Anyhow, there was a locked off section of the redoubt that we were never once allowed to see what was hidden. UNTIL NOW!
The secret that laid dormant for nearly two centuries was awakened by a magistrate and archivist. The end result was the death of a Baron which has never happened before in the history of the villes.
Kane, Grant, Brigid and Domi are sent to investigate the death, and the implications. They discover far more than they ever expected. Yet another mystery left over from the Archon Directive.
The name isn't misleading, but Doomstar isn't what you expect it to be.
And to the author.... I want to see Tara return!

The best series

Doomstar Relic is a good example of why Outlanders is the best action/adventure series being published today. Axler gives us a bizarre menance in the form of a beautiful (and naked) woman, an even bigger menance which springs from a real scientific project and once again, a surprising depth of characterization.
Doomstar Relic also hints that things are not exactly what the reader has been led to believe over the last few books. And as always, there is intense action, violence and doses of humor.
This is the only men's adventure series I read and will continue to read consistently. Each book has been different from the others and the series stays fresh.
