Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Too many liberties with the storyline
Review: This book simply butchers the story. Blair was a hero and a tough guy, not some weakling, who just about gets killed at the beginning. Furthermore, the idea of a full Colonel, who is over forty, having some sort of romance with a Lieutenant, who is not only his subordinate but about half his age, is simply disgusting, not to mention having nothing to do with the actual story. Avoid this book, if you have any concern for accuracy in the Wing Commander universe.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!!! An absolute have to read!!!
Review: This is my favorite war book. I loved the games and the movie. It took me a while before I found out that there was a book series. I picked this book up and did not put it down until the third time through.

YOU MUST BUY THIS!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wicked!
Review: This novel is the best no matter what the others said if you just read the novel it is good I had truble putting it down

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great 'based on' book.
Review: Yes, yet another Wing Commander, yet another book.

The book consisted with a good plotline, with 'new' material, that was never released in the actual game (such as the beginning). Though, a few things that I could have lived with, ie, Blair persuing a relationship with Sosa (as another reviewer pointed out), the book did pretty well for itself.

The characters had the delema of killing their own, which was portrayed quite well. Though, there are some gaps, like whatever happened to Vegabond? Also, the book tests human morality, with some references to ''20th Century'' Hitler.

All in all, the book is well writen, and a relaxing book to read. But, if you're looking for that one awesome, killer, Sci-fi book, unfortunately, you must move on.
