Savage Armada

Summary: Savagely Good!
Review: This is one of the more exciting of the Deathlands novels because it starts edging into the Outlanders universe. It is hoped that the Deathlands characters can meet the Outlanders bunch at some nexus in/at some future space-time, perhaps via a chronos-jump....

I liked this installment primarily because of where I think it is heading -- towards Outlanders!

Summary: HIGH SEAS ADVENTURE DEATHLANDS STYLE!
Review: This new Deathlands trilogy starts with a bang! The SKYDARK CHRONICLES reads like a old-fashioned pirate movie and fits so perfectly in this post-holocaust world that the book moves along like a speeding bullet, with action scenes so colorful and well done that the spectacular sea wars are like that straight out of a well-made movie. This robust novel full of new and interesting people, (both good and bad), is so refreshing it leaves you wanting more! The ending was so breathtaking and cliffhangar-like, it left me breathing hard from exertion. If Deathlands fans aren't happy with this one - then I don't know what will. The caliber of writing style recently has been on a real good roll if you ask me, and I have been a fan since day 1 back in June of '86. The characters of Ryan and company are kept well intact and the numerous new characters are fresh and well written. The storyline is bold and very exciting with a new twist on mutant people. I love a storyline where all the characters share the stage and its not just all Ryan doing all the stunts. Whoever wrote this one should be commended (and paid more),because its taking a Deathlands novel in uncharted waters and making it fun and extremely enjoyable to read from the 1st page to the last! Enjoy this one folks.
