Summary: A exciting tornado-paced must-read for any BattleTech fan.
Review: Michael Stackpole continues to shape the BattleTech universe with this latest tale of falling empires, shifting balances of power, political intrigue, assassination, and galactic warfare. The culmination of a several-year story arc and the Twilight of the Clans series, no BattleTech fan should be without "Prince of Havoc" -- and the nail-biting conclusion is guaranteed to leave the reader awestruck.

Summary: Best yet in the Twilight Series
Review: Michael Stackpole is without a doubt the best author in the BT universe. Prince of Havoc continues his fine tradition of political intrigue with twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat and make the novel almost impossible to put down. I cant wait to see want develops in his future novels (especially considering how PoH finished). All I hope for is that Katherine gets exactly what's coming to her. The only criticism of the novel I have is that it could have extended over two novels, with some of the events that were only described in passing getting a more detailed desciption. But perhaps these events will be covered in future novels.

Summary: Horrid, simply Horrid
Review: More and more evidence of total bungling on the part of FASA. I am certainly never going to run any campaigns in the post-3060 universe...way too many unbelivable plot twists, with absolutly no thought given to such ideas as believability.

Summary: Brace yourself for something new....
Review: OK, so the classic Battletech universe is dead. Has been. That was shattered in '88 when Stackpole and Charette invented the Clans. And anyone who didn't think the Clans were planned WELL in advance hasn't read the OUTSTANDING _Wolves On The Border_. And so the Star League is reborn. This just means there is a new wrinkle to the plot around the corner. Will they whack Omi Kurita, ruining Victor's only love in life? Will Katherine finally get what she has coming? No one knows. HURRY UP WITH THE NEXT ONE!

Summary: Battletech Aging?
Review: Once again Michael Stackpole shows his brilliance in the Battletech universe, writing one of the best novels I have read so far. However, this installment shows some wear and tear in the storyline. With so many of the Great Houses becoming allies and resurrecting the Star League, and the Clans all but neutralized, who is left to fight? Don't get me wrong, this is a great book with surprising twists, but after 15 years Battletech may be slowing down.

Rating:
Summary: Outstanding...AGAIN
Review: So far everything that Michael Stackpole has touched in the Battletech Universe has turned to gold. This is no exception. The culmanation of over a year is without disapointment.Even though so many questions are answered in this book Mr. Stackpole has opened so many other doors that I cannot wait for the next book even though I finished this one yesterday.

Summary: Stackpole does it again
Review: Stackpole shows true talent in his writing to combine warfare intercantly with politics. Prince of Havok is with out a doubt a battletech classic. The twist at the end was unexpected and most welcome. Prince of Havok was devided into to parts, similer to how Grave Covenant was divided up. with the diffrance that the first part was the campaign against the clans and the latter part with the Byzantine Intrigue. The action and suprises kept coming fast. This novel is with out a doubt one of Stackpole's best

Summary: The best Battletech novel ever!
Review: The first time, the Battletech novels made it to Germany, I became a fan of them. And to be perfectly honest after having read the other 41 novels, too, I can say that "Prince of Havoc" is the best one so far. The Jags are drowned in their own blood and cruelty, the Clan Invasion has ended (at least as long as the Wolfs and Jade Falcons are busy) and the Inner Sphere has radically changed. The role of being the bad guys has shifted from House Liao to House Steiner (thanks to Katherine Steiner's blood-thirst I can live with that - as a native Kraut). Michael Stackpole has managed to maintain such a high level of tension and incredible surprises and changes throughout the entire storyline, I can hardly wait for the story to be contiuned!

Let's just hope that we do not have to wait too long!
