If you are a Primal Rage fan, then you'll probably love this book, almost all of them have. However most Primal Rage fans are very young as in twelve and below.

Vornholt tries to incorporate all the gods and give them each a unique personality but ends up shining on only a few namely Blizzard and a little bit of Vertigo (my personal favorite, and I must say he did her no justice.)

The game is about the gods. The book is about seven special worshippers that have been linked to their gods.

Vornholt has a tendency to confuse his characters during the battle scenes and makes a nice amount of typos as well. The plot is boring and typical. You won't find anything profound in this read.

It's pulp fiction in it's purest form.

Primal Rage, for those who don't know, was a popular videogame that brought a lot of gamers's attention, thanks in part to the storyline, gameplay system, and much more. Sure, it was a fighting game that cloned several other games, like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter II, but it's a great game in it's own merits. Thanks to John Vornholt, a book has been released long ago and it stills entertains Primal Rage fans in the years to come.

The story is simple and uncomplicated. While the dino-gods are fighting for world domination, Necrosan, a new god, enters their world and banishes them using a spell called the "Bonds Of Forbidding." However, their shamans are left to fight their new adversary and haven't given up yet. Meanwhile, one of the dino-gods has a plan - using their powers, they can allow their shamans to transform into them for one hour. However, as the shamans gain this new power, some are power-hungry with this new-found gift, while others are sticking to the real goal: freeing the gods and defeating Necrosan once and for all.

This is a great book, not because of it's story, but a lot of action is implemented. Those who tend to like action will love what Primal Rage: The Avatars has to offer. It's sad to note that this book also dwells on the storyline for Primal Rage 2, which was, unfortunately, never released, and would give gamers an idea of what the game would played and sound liked. Finally, the book includes another devastating flaw - it does not include more backgrounds of all the dino-gods, save for Blizzard.

Other than that, it's highly recommanded that players give Primal Rage - The Avatars a second chance to read. It's a great, although short, book and it's worth anyone's time and patience!

This book was great all the way to the end!!
It had lots of packed action!! I wish it would have told a little more about the charictors especially Talon!
This book is a must read!! Talon Rules!!

I recently read Primal Rage: The Avatars, and I read it in only 2 days because it was so cool! I couldnt stop reading! The storyline was great, and the Avatar deal was a pretty cool idea. I wish PR2 came out, but not everything we want happens. I wish they had a little more info on the Gods (especially Sauron!), but it was a great book anyway. Sauron is the best Primal Rage God!

A fantastic book, one of my all-time favorites. Although I wish we could have known more about the other characters (especially Talon!), it was still great. Anyone who likes the game will love the book, and perhaps even people who haven't played the game will enjoy it.

Also, if you didn't know, this was the original plot for Primal Rage 2. I know they were making it, my cousin played a demo a couple years back. But whatever happened to Primal Rage 2? I wish I knew....

This is probably the best book I have ever read. And I urge you to read it.

An excellent, suspenseful book that really displays the world of Primal Rage. They should have gone into more detail with the others, but I like it anyway! A sequel MUST be written! Long live Primal Rage!
