Summary: Well, okay, I guess.
Review: The first two books in this trilogy had more of the Babylon 5 feel I've come to know. This book fell pretty flat. Bester from the show (and the first two books) is truly a more complex person then the one presented here. In the other two books, I could hear Garibaldi speak his lines. In this book, not really. With almost all elements of the B5 universe missing, this book could have been about anyone, anywhere. Plus, unless sleeper drugs have improved (of which improvements are not mentioned in the books from what I saw), they take hours to kick in.

Summary: Best in the Trilogy
Review: This book was the most enjoyable of the three novels encompassing the Psi Corp trilogy. What I likes most about it was this intimate glimpse into the life of Bester in his older years-- and seeing him (almost) give in to a human weakness. I also thought the author did a wonderful job of ending Bester's story and bringing the trilogy full circle. A very quick read but fun nonetheless.

Summary: Just horrible.
Review: This was a terrible series. It added nothing to the B5 universe of any significance.The born again Bester was not true to character. This was just a bad book. Don't read it.

Summary: Very good, but...
Review: I thought this was an excellent book. Very well written. Although, I thought it would tell more about the telepath war. Since it was hinted in the series, books, and so forth. I hope somebody writes about the telepath war!

Summary: An Emotional End to the Trilogy
Review: This book follows Strasynzski's tradition of taking an accepted formula and turning it on it's head. What if the Evil Mr Bester were to suddenly decide to return to Earth and lead a normal life? What if he were to fall in love and find that he still had a soul worth loving? What if his own past, the past that he himself created, tracked him down and tried to destroy his new life? This story shows Micheal Garibaldi's singleminded quest to hunt Bester down and deny him of a peaceful end. We are left feeling that history is truly written by the victor and that no matter where you go or how hard you try to escape, you can never escape the baggage of your own history.

Summary: Shrug
Review: I actually liked the love story in this book and if it had stayed there it would have been a fascinating meditation in evil, redemption and the irony of fate. Unfortunately the story seemed to call for Bester to get caught and when the chase began the book became a boring chase. The final amusing irony was not enough to pull the book out of the morass into which it had fallen. So five stars on the first half, and two stars on the second half. It would have been a better book if Bester had gotten away with it.

Summary: Good finish to the Psi-CorpsTrilogy
Review: While the ommision of the actual Psi-Corp War was irritating (though understandable if JMS is ever able to produce a movie of it), the rest of the story was well-done. A good addition to the Babylon 5 universe. If you are a fan of B5, the whole trilogy is worth reading.

Summary: Count another disappointed reader
Review: This is the final book of a trilogy that promised to tell us the secret history of the psi-corps. What it failed to tell us is that that history would still largely be a secret to us at the end. The constant references to things not covered made the enterprise awkward. There was more a feeling that we missed the good parts of the saga. I will say that Keyes did a wonderful job of working with the outline he was given. It only makes me want to read some of his own works. He's a gifted writer. The last parts of the book worked very well.

Summary: ok as a stand alone, but does not add to the arc
Review: This was a good stand alone book, as an examination of a psychopath(Bester) and his human qualities. However, it reveals very little about the telepath war, and Bester falling in love with a 'normal' was unconvincing. Also, Besters punishment of simple imprisonment seemed very lenient for a war criminial. A mindwipe, new personality, and service to the society he harmed so greatly seems more appropriate. A decent book but not anywhere the level of "In the Beginning" or "To Dream in the City of Sorrows".

Summary: The lesser of the three books in the series. Had some merit
Review: The series was named 'The Psi Corps Trilogy'. Yet the 3rd book in the series has almost nothing to do with the Psi Core (or rather it's reminents) at all. Granted it was well written and the storyline was very smooth and believable, but the focus is too much on Bester. We are tempted in the first two books with the construction and corruption of the Psi Core, but instead of dealing with the 'fall of Psi Core', the 3rd book wants to switch pace and tell a tragic love story. If they wanted to do this then at the very least give us the satisfaction of seeing Garibaldi get his revenge. What we see instead is a very anti-climactic and small-scale ending to a plot element that has had viewers of the television show wondering about since the 4th season . 'What will Garibaldi's revenge on Bester be?' - I never imagined it would be a few punches thrown in a back alley somewhere in Paris. In review this book, while a good story, did not match the story thread begun in the first two books. It also robbed faithful viewers of seeing one of Bester's greatest victims vindicate himself against his foe.
