Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Splendid supernatural story from Washington to Africa
Review: This is excellent reading from an author who has covered a broad range of topics. An African Massai Laibon (leader) goes to America to find two special people and bring them back to Africa to stop an evil force from coming through to our world. Fantastic imagery, wonderful and believable characters and an African myth brought to life and you'll NEVER look at tire rubber on the side of the road the same again! ;) Full of twists, frights, humor and great interactions. It's out of print... it's worth finding!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Book!
Review: This is one of his best books he has ever written! I am glad to see it is back in print. For a long time it was almost impossible to find. This is one of his books I gave out sparingly as a loaner for friends to read only when I had an extra copy as I did not want to let my only copy go.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Into the Out Of
Review: This is one of my all-time favorite books. I have read many of the author's books and love his Flinx series, but this one is unique. I wish he would write another in a similar vein. As another reviewer noted, this would make a spectacular visual event, although it would need to be a mini-series to capture the full effects. Too many great books are butchered in the movies. The first chapters, introducing the characters are as interesting to me as the remainder of the book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good read -- but a few hiccups in the plot
Review: This was an enjoyable yarn, written with Foster's easy touch and sense of character.

My sole complaint was with a few glaring problems with continuity that spoiled the story for me somewhat. (It's hard to give an example without giving away the storyline, but watch for references to the characters' eyes.)

Despite the technical goofs, I still enjoyed the book, as I've enjoyed nearly all of Alan Dean Foster's works.
