Summary: And another one
Review: Alan Dean Foster just does not fail, it's has simple has that. I was look through a book collection at the local flee market when I thought my eyes where playing tricks on me and I saw an ADF novel. Naturally I grapped it, pay'd for it, and whent home to read it. This book simply rocks!! It has an original plot (A norm for ADF) that holds you until you have finished reading the book. The plot in a nut shell is that the border between reak and unreal is weakning and a Massai wise guy goes out and finds two americans to fight with him against them. Filled with desciptions of horrid monsters and filty beings this is a must for every one and mandatory buy for all ADF fans!!

Summary: Fiction, Fact, or Fantasy
Review: As a fan of Stephen King and Dean Koontz, Into The Out Of is the only book that made me sleep with the lights on! This book presents the "boogy man" as real and exposes the "darkside" in ways that most would not care to believe. I have read this book several times through the years and have recommended it to many. If you're looking for an entertaining read, this is great! If your looking for facts and figures, try a text book.

Summary: Foster's best book ever
Review: Fans of Alan Dean Foster are familiar with his "cute" science fiction (Flinx and Pip, Quozl, etc.) and all of his novelizations, but Into The Out Of is a unique, quasi-horror, exploration of an African mythology.Our protagonist is is pulled into a struggle between light and dark by a tribal wise man. I do not wish to give away any of the plot, but our heroes must fight "demons" from the other side who are trying to enter our world. The story appears to be very well researched (except the author seems to think that glass eyes are functional and not merely cosmetic (the only real flaw in the story)). Into The Out Of was followed by Foster's Maori, after which the author seemed to leave the dark continent for good (although he did revisit horror with Vanishing Point). Truely a good book.

Summary: Captivating Story Line
Review: I read this book in one sitting, which I "rarely" do for any book. Given today's special effects technology, it would make an outstanding movie. Easy reading, but hard to put down!

Summary: Eerie and Suspenseful - His Best Work Ever !
Review: I read this book some years back and I have been recommending it to others who can track it down. What a great read - sometimes suspenseful, mysterious, and creepy. This is Alan's best work and it would make one hell of a movie. Give it a shot - you will not be sorry.

Summary: One of my favorites.... Excellent Horror/Science Fiction
Review: It's been many years since I've read this book and it still remains one of my favorites. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a good horror story. I've tried to read other books by Alan Dean Foster. In general, his type of science fiction books don't generally appeal to me. This book was definitely the exception.

Summary: His most unique and incredible work!
Review: This book has nothing to do with any of his series and is not what you could call his 'usual' Sci-fi writing. Although I have read and enjoyed almost all of his books, this book is the one I consider his most unique and distinctive writing. The first four chapters start out real slow as he builds the background for the main characters and their inescapable meeting. After the fifth chapter I could not put the book down. Every time I re-read the book, I find something I missed before. If you want a book to escape into for the week-end, this one will do it.
