Product Description

The Gates were there on Phobos when mankind first arrived. Inert, unyielding, impossibly alien constructs, for twenty years they sat lifeless, mute testaments to their long-vanished creators, their secrets hidden. Then one day, they sprang to life...

Meet Corporal Flynn Taggart, United States Marine Corps; serial number 888-23-9912. He's the best warrior the twenty-first century has to offer, which is a damn good thing. Because Flynn Taggart is all that's standing between the hell that just dropped in on Mars and an unsuspectingg planet Earth...



Ingram

The first volume of a series based on the popular video game brings readers to the outer rims of moons Phobos and Deimos and describes the assault team's confrontations with monsters within the Phobos base.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Very Much Alive, Jui 8 2004
Dafydd ab Hugh and Brad Linaweaver's "DOOM: Knee Deep In the Dead" is without a shade of doubt the best of DOOM-inspired fiction, surpassing even its three sequels. While admittedly unrealistic, the action is well paced, the narrative tense and suspenseful. It was interesting to observe how the writers attempted to expand the DOOM universe while staying true to its video-game roots as the game that really ignited the first-person-shooter genre.

The plot is simple and very much the same as the original game. Corporal Flynn Taggart "or 'fly'" is marooned on the moon of Phobos. Making the grisly discovery that his whole unit of marines has been slaughtered by hostile aliens while he stood guard outside the deserted Union Aerospace Corporation facility, Corporal Taggart must enter the facility not only to secure a way back to Earth but to uncover the cause behind this massacre. What he discovers is nothing less than chilling.

Written in the First Person Perspective, the style of the novel is reminscient of the original DOOM PC game, and with a rollicking narrative punctuated with both staccato bursts of gunfire and a generous dollop of light-hearted Sci-fi fantasy, "Knee Deep in The Dead" while not particularly deep is nevertheless a fantastic read with a wide and surprising emotional range-much unlike most other offerings in the genre-.
A fine book.

5.0étoiles sur 5 It's pretty good, Jui 7 2004
Par Un client
I'd definitely recommend this book. It's quite well written, and brings a bit of plot (and lots of humor) to the Doom universe. I'm ordering its sequels as I write this, and I hope they're as worth it as this one is.

The creatures and environments are translated very well (those who have played the game often will know where the characters are a number of times, although the authors do make a few areas up and skip a few others - but can you really blame them?)

If you enjoyed Doom, and have even a passing interest in books, you'll enjoy yourself quite a bit with this one.
