Summary: Planeshift is a 5 star book
Review: A action packed book from begining to end. I give it 5 stars but i didnt like when Agnate died by the lich lord. I am now reading Apocalyps, that is another good book. J.Robert King did a good job.

Summary: Great but not perfect.
Review: As the story progresses, it is not all that important that one has to read the previous books in this theme, however in order to understand what is going on one needs to read the previous books as well. This entire set (called cycle) takes up about 930 pages total, unfortunately having read them all, this story could have been compressed to half of that. Which is the only flaw of these books; they are repetitive, especially when it comes to combat (after all, there are only so many ways to kill an opponent). Asides from that, its worth buying.

Summary: Even better than 'Invasion'!
Review: J. Robert King, writer of many books regarding the Phyrexians, has truly shown their great powers in this sequel to Invasion. Suspense and never-before-known facts make this book quite a good read! I loved reading it and recommend it to all Magic storyline fans.

Review: King delivers an amazing twist to the Magic Universe, weither your into magic or not you must read this book. I bought it they day it came out and was so involved, and not wanting to quit finished it off that same day. This book is amazing, especially when Yawgmoth is around, which he definetly is.

Summary: Ack! Come On!
Review: Ok this series is really begining to annoy me. At first I loved the series about Urza Planeswalker, and the character himself is one of my favorite characters. But now, for some reason, J. Robert King has turned Urza into a week willed pansy. He actually made Urza join the Phyrexians!? Come on, Urza hates Phyrexia with all his heart, he would do anything to destroy Phyrexia even sacrifice himself, in Urza's insanity Mishra was one of the only people he has ever cared about. Even in the book The Brothers War it illustrates that. That is my main grief with this book, the way it portrays Urza.As for the rest of the book itself, all I can say is it was decent. Gerarrd turnin towards Phyrexia didn't bother me too much because I never found Gerard that intresting in the first place. The rest was pretty kewl, especially about Karn getting his memories back. I would suggest this book only to those that are already following the series of the books, if you haven't read the previous books please do not try readin this one first, because you will have no idea whats going on.

Summary: Less on war
Review: Planeshift focuses less on the invasion of Dominaria and more about Rath. There is a scene very closely related to the art on the Magic the Gathering trading card: Phyrexian Tyrrany. Selenia, Crovax's last love, returns but is hardly mentioned. Eladamri seems to be a better uniter in this book. I have to admit this, very rarely this book gets a little bit boring. READ INVASION BEFORE THIS OR YOU WILL BE SO CONFUSED YOU WILL WANT A REFUND ON THE BOOK! Overall, Planeshift is great.

Summary: Non stop action...yes, it's a book.
Review: Planeshift is one of those rare books that has extreme action that never quits. It seriously felt like watching a movie. The violence is descriptive, and very captivating, but, for me, that's not quite enough to completely quench my thirst. First of all, there is little character development in this book: it's all fighting. However, the most interesting characters in the book are the dragons, specifically the Primevals. The five mighty gods rampage about Dominaria, showing their very distinctive natures. We see how the dragons change as the story progresses, until the final, breathtaking outcome. However, back on the human/metathran etc side, we have less interesting characters, but more battles. Consider this: billions, yes, BILLIONS of Phyrexians march towards our helpless heros, and at the last minute, they are seperated by Urza to complete seperate tasks. Basically, aside from the gory fights, the humanoid sections are fairly boring. Finally, we get to the Planeswalkers. Here is where the overall story really matters, and where the twists really occur. With the 'Walkers ongoing struggle to fight Phyrexia, the temptation of such power begins to corrupt the 'Walkers to the point of turning on one another. The one complaint I could have with the fighting portions is the whole 'We can kill anything' sceme. Sure, our heros are battle trained, but the Phyrexians are brutal killing machines, bred for that purpose. Most of them have blades and weapons integrated right onto them! I think there certainly could have been more outright casualties. Anyways, I recommend this book as a good read to anyone who loves Magic, any fantasy fan, or just anyone looking for a (literally) bloody good time.
