5.0 out of 5 stars Best I have ever read, Jun 2 2002

By

Melinda Judd (Chicago area) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Rage for Revenge (Mass Market Paperback)

My review title actually refers to the series. This book, as well as the other 3 in the series, are simply fascinating. I read alot, and can usually figure out what is going to happen before the author lets us readers in on things. In these books, with few exceptions, I cannot. And I certainly have no idea where DG is headed with the worms, bunny dogs, all the weird plant life and so on. I REALLY wish there would be another book in this series. Maybe if DG has lost the edge, he can hire another writer to take over and get the thing to the conclusion he supposedly already has in mind? OK, bottom line, his character development is good, writing detains excellent, and the conversations and character interactions so well thought out, the book reads fast and easy, and you will want to read it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Case for a Classic, Dec 27 1999

By

"warriorchick" (Washington DC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Rage for Revenge (Mass Market Paperback)

The War against the Chtorr series of books was first published in the mid eighties. At a later point, the incomplete series was rereleased with a few changes. I first read the first three novels in a single hardback collection that I borrowed from a friend's house, and loved it. At the time, I was unaware that David Gerrold had also written "the Trouble with Tribbles." I later bought what paperbacks(the first 4 novels) were available. This set has been with me through multiple moves, and is the last book I will read this millenium. This series has not become dated--in fact, many of the thoughts remain refreshingly new. David has created a very complete world that is easy to enjoy. The characterizations are complex, the plot engaging, and along with the intense descriptions combine to present a seamless experience. However, the series remains unfinished, so ultimately, you must resolve the fate of the world yourself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another great one
It's a shame that we allways have to wait so many years for the next one. Not as good as Book 1 and 2. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, but let's have book 5 already
I've passed this series onto at least 15 people. All of them very different, some never have read SF before and all still loved it. Read more
