Summary: Good for Fans
Review: If you are not a fan of B5. The book does not stand on its own. If you are a fan, you may enjoy learning the background of the Psi Corp and the genesis of the B5 Universe. That said, the book does little to move the characters forward (it takes place in the past) and in a few places conflicts with things in the TV show. Entertaining, but nothing to write home about.

Summary: Tries to do too much.
Review: I went into this book looking forward to learning more of the history of the Psi Corp, the group I loved to hate from the Babylon 5 TV show. I was disappointed, however. This book covers the birth of the Psi Corp after the discovery of Telepaths on earth. It also covers the resistance movement during the early years. However, it tries to cover too much territory. The action takes place over 100 years and includes a couple generations of characters. As a result, it doesn't appear to be really focused on anything or anyone. It comes across as more of a history then a novel.This book is interesting reading for the Babylon 5 fan, but not an engrossing novel. The other two books in this trilogy do focus the characters and action more, so I hope that when I get a chance to read them I will like them better.
