Rating: Summary: Not at this price Review: I am usually a big fan of omnibus editions in general and of Baen's omnibuses in particular. But in this case, I just don't understand the pricing ($25.00). Crusade and In Death Ground are both readily available as paperbacks. You could pick up the two paperbacks for $15.98. Hopefully Baen will put The Stars at War out as a paperback in the near future. If so I will pick one up for sure.
Rating: Summary: Disappointed Review: I find it amazing what publishers will do to sell books! I bought this book believing it was another addition in the series, but I find out that it is a combination of two previous novels (Crusade & In Death Ground) in the series! I originally believed the series was very enjoyable, but after the last fiasco I believe it will strongly leave a doubt in my mind on continuing reading the series.
Rating: Summary: disappointed Review: I pre-ordered this book thinking it was a continuation of the series; it's not! this is the novels 'Crusade' and 'In Death Ground' combined into one hardback book. Now it's nice to have these novels in hardback form and I probably would have bought it just to replace the old paperback copies, but there's no reason for this book not to be listed for what it is.
Rating: Summary: Stars at war Review: I was also suckered! This is a PRE-quil to Shiva option not a sequel! BURN!!
Rating: Summary: It is not a NEW work! Review: It is not a new book, it is a combination. If I had not picked it up in a brick/mortar Barnes & Noble (and put it back even faster!) I would have bought it at full retail. It is labeled on the back cover in small print-Crusade and In Death Ground. I would prefer In Death Ground be combined with The Shiva Option, honestly!
Rating: Summary: Worthless - a waste of time and money Review: Like the first reviewer, I pre-ordered this book thinking it was a NEW work by the authors. I am a fan of both, but I already have both Crusade and In Death Ground. If you haven't read the two books included therein, this would be a good purchase. Otherwise, save your money. Baen books and Amazon should have disclosed that the book is a reprint, but I guess to do so would hurt their sales.
Rating: Summary: Good Review Review: This book was great and it was intense and exciting and for others who have review and/or judged it not by its contents because it was preprinted material is childish. Also, some people like to collect hardcover books in this world. I think it is unfair to readers who have not read any of the series to date to listen to reviewers to judge it by what you thought it might be instead if it was a good read or not.
