Summary: Classic Stackpole
Review: This is a fine follow-up to the last two books, as well as to Grave Covenant. The first half is unfortunately predictable but carried well, as nothing else could have really happened. The second half is nonstop Stackpole, as if the best parts of the Warrior trilogy (with its huge surprise at the end) and 'Assumption' and 'Bred for War' were re-enacted. I would like to fuel speculation that the main character of the post-'Heritage of Kerensky' trilogy Stackpole novels is actually the 'Assassin'. What would really be neat is for him to go to the Clans and become their leader...

Summary: 5-Star Excellence
Review: This is one of the best books of the Twilight of the Clans Series. The downfall of the Clans and the heroism of Prince Victor is crystal clear. I can't wait till FEDCOM is Victor's again. I'm sure he has something in store for Katrina. Read this for sure.

Summary: Stackpole continues to set the standard for Battletech
Review: Twilight of the Clans VII: Prince of Havoc continues the long running storyline that Michael Stackpole and others have established in the Battletech Universe. It is an outstanding book and definately worth reading whether your a Battletech fan or just looking for a classic High-Tech heroes vs. villains book. Stackpole manages to punctuate the finish of long running Star League invasion of the Clan homeworlds, and set the stage for the furture of the Battletech Universe all in this single book. Prince of Havoc is an epic which spans the entire known universe and features the regular cast of characters without being singularly trite. Like I said before, this book is definately worth reading.

Summary: The Inner Sphere goes inside out...
Review: Victor and gang (Operation Bulldog/TaskForce Serpent finally reach the Clan homeworld of Strana Mechty and battle it out in a Trial of Refusal. This leads to an overload of uninspired chapters in the first half of the book describing various unit's battles with each other, almost blow by blow. I know what Stackpole was trying to do, and in theory it was a good idea, but in execution it was a tough read. I think Stackpole was trying to give everyone's favorite clan/unit/warrior a showing in what was arguably the most important battle in BattleTech history (at least since Tukkayid); what we ended up with was kind of mechanical and dull. Oh well, it was worth it once the fighting was over!What I've always liked best about Stackpole's BattleTech writings are the political and social action, and boy he delivers as expected. The Dancing Joker (the assasin/terrorist of earlier novels) makes an appearance, Katherine (aka Katrina) is in rare form, and Victor has some major surprises waiting for him. A must read if you're going to follow the "main" BT story line.

Summary: Great story, but too short for that.
Review: When I got this book in my mail I started reading it at once and did not stop until I read the last page. The story is really dense with many surprises. The only sad thing is: it is too short, especially for that storyline. There was enough for at least two books in it. I just can't wait until the sequel comes out. If you don't know Battletech you'll like this book. If you like Battletech (as I do) you'll love this book. Anyway, go ahead and add it to your shopping cart. You won't be disappointed. Great book!

Summary: One of THE best Stackpole books I've read
Review: When I picked up this book, I though "Gee, another Twilight of the Clans book", so I bought it, took it home, and from the moment I read the first line of the first page, I was hooked. The book has more of the political intrigue that I love, and enough plot twists to keep you wondering.

Summary: It's pretty good!
Review: While this is not Stackpole's best work in the Battletech Universe (that's still the Warrior series in my opinion), this is another solid entry for him. The plot is clear, but at the same time does take some twists and turns to surprise you. It's very good, if not his best. My only criticisms would be that the battle scenes are a bit too long and too dense, and that the climax is just a bit too over the top. That being said, I enjoyed it, and can hardly wait for Stackpole to return to the Inner Sphere.
