Descent = BEST Book

To be honest, I must say that I expected DESCENT to be worse than the game, as it was released after. I was horribly wrong. Every time I read this book (which is several dozen times a year), I feel like i'm really in the cockpit of an illegally modified Pyro-GX, blasting mechs apart with a vengeance. This is the best book I have read in a long time, save for the other two books, DESCENT : Stealing Thunder and DESCENT : Equinox. I only hope there is a fourth.

You must have it!

Descent the best book in the space. You must have it! Who love game series DESCENT, founded in this book all what want. The best design of this book give pleasure when get it in hands. Well, I'm happy have this book!

Fantastic

I loved this book. I could not put it down once I started, and I took 4 hours out of my Sunday to read the last 150 pages. The strong points overrode the weaker points. I would have loved to see the breifing scene from the game, and would have liked more action, and thought it would have been cool to have more chapters from that Supervisor droid's perspective. (Like, chill dude!) But, the conflict between Dravis and Ornowski was great. Keep up the good work.

DESCENT IS OUTSTANDING !

Having played Descent when it first came out in 95 I felt that noone could do a book. But I was wrong. Author Peter Telep has made a great game into a great book. From the begining of the first chapter to the last chapter. I could not put the book down. Back to playing Descent.

Get it...Read it...Get the next one...Read it....

The only problem is Peter should have started this series sooner. If you are a Descenter and haven't read this yet you are missing the Pyro.This should be the start of a very popular series. I hope. Definately 5+ Stars
