Summary: The plot thickens
Comment: Episode 2 of the Deathstalker series really pulled me in. While episode 1 got things rolling with introductions episode 2 moves the story along at a nice pace. Owen and Hazel land on Mist World a last refuge for people wanted by the empire. As the title indocates they meet up with all kinds of friends, enemies and allies. A batch of new and interesting characters are introduced and join Owen Deathstalker and Hazel on their quest to bring down the evil empire. "Sounds familiar?" As i mentioned in my review of episode 1 this series borrows heavily from the Star Wars universe yet it is distinctive and does offer fresh plot lines of its own. As well there is a more adult flavouring to this series then Star Wars. Of course these books are geared for the male reader/listener in mind but girls will have no problem in enjoying them as well. Plenty of tough female characters abound. My favorite character however is Valentine Wolf, an aristocrat and one of the most colorful characters in this series. Simon Green has him as a sexually ambivalent man who on the surface seems so delicate but in truth is quite powerful and shrewed. His face is full of make up and the reader injects a bit of a stereo typical gay tone when narrating his part. Still, its a welcome addition to a genre that seems to be intrinsically hetero centric. In short, these books are full of action and I am hooked! This book contains 2 audio cassettes and is narrated by a cast of readers. There are sound effects and music as well to complement the narration.
