I thought this was very diferent sort of game. Very fun and worth the money.

Lets see, its a cool book with a great ending that sets up what I hope to be yet another stellar addition to this trilogy. But lets get back to this book before we get into the next.

This book starts out quite some time after the last one ended, simon has built up his own templar complex and is still sheltering any survivors and taking in anybody who needs him. Warren is still pissy about his hand and still helping out the demon who is bound to him in hopes that it will let him live another day. And Leah is still doing her own thing with what ever group employs her.

The main story in this book revolves around differnt artifacts that are believed to have information on stoping the demons and freeing london. Warren and Simon both seem to be going after them plus warren gets stuck fighting some deamons for his boss man against his will. Everything is written in the same style as the first with the action comeing first and being the main apeal. There is some definate character development, but not a whole lot. The one who really comes along the most is Warren, he makes a new friend that helps him learn how to control his own power and helps set him up for the ineveitable confrontation between him and his demon overlord in the 3rd book. Should be neat....this review is dragging on and its rather poorly written...Read the book if you liked the first, its more of the same. Just remember these are before the game...so its not like the good guys win or anything. Oh well

Damn...this book was intense, I played the game quite abit and I have to admit i was quite skeptical about a book. I didn't really see it carrying over to well, but by going back and doing more of a origins and original story angle it actually is starting off very good.

Its a minor complaint but the book pissed me off quite a few times, one of the twists in particular caught me off gaurd and just kinda angers me. But that one is particular is also why I am so excited to keep reading. Lets just say Warren and leave it there.

The story is pretty good, if your familar with the game at all you know what it is. Gates open up around london and demons pour out of them and take the city. The good guys try to fight and hold them back while trying to come up with a way to retake the city. Only thing I don't like is that they take place 14 years before the game....you kinda know how it ends. Demons are in the game, demons don't exactly lose at the end of the books.

Great read, fast paced and well done. Very good book, amazing video game book.

Why stop at three.
I'll buy a number 4.
There was a lot left unresolved.
