review 1: I really wanted to like this, because I like StarCraft, and the book design is so cool (I'm a sucker for nice covers, plus this one has bonus art inside). But it was a rather pedestrian military story about young men, in my opinion, and I didn't get through it all (keep in mind that I have major time constraints, and don't get through most books I read.) One thing kinda bothered me, too...I'm assuming the audience this was intended for was largely teens who played StarCraft, but I thought the immoral behavior of the college-aged characters was glorified and presented a bad example for readers of that age. So I thought it was too juvenile for an adult, and a bit too adult for a juvenile.
review 2: A well written, engaging story that gives a very different per... morespective on Jim Raynor's character, and establishes the origins of Tychus Findlay and his connection to Jim when you play the Wings of Liberty campaign. I didnt like Findlay much before and this book made me really not like him. the other character that were members of the "Heaven's Devils" group were mostly not very memorable, except for the sniper who was a conscripted, kidnapped teen originating from a rich family, and the treacherous medic addicted to "crab". I would have liked a more well rounded ending, but the writing style was satisfactory. It kept me engaged and was very true to the Starcraft universe. I recommend it to any fan who is interested in the story and lore. less
