4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Read, 5 Jul 2007
By Stephen C. Wakeman "Syphadeus" (Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having read all of the Halo novels and enjoyed them, I decided to buy Mass Effect: Revelation from Amazon seeing as I'm really looking forward to the forthcoming video game later this year.

This book initially focuses on establishing the backbone of the universe, explaining and detailing to the reader the situation in the galaxy, mankind's massive technological evolution and it's introduction onto the galactic stage that it shares with many other species. Once the groundwork is laid, it opens up into it's own narrative that concentrates on a few central characters and tells a story which is a small piece of a much larger puzzle.

It's a light and easy read, although it manages to be descriptive and interesting. It's not particularly emotional, although I thought there were some cool moments in it that will very much appease fans of the type of game it's based on.

I would recommend it to anybody who has enjoyed books based on video games before, or to those wishing to get a little bit of insight into BioWare's next massive fictional world. It doesn't take long to read, so it's not a major time investment and it's enjoyable and entertaining while it lasts.

4.0 out of 5 stars not too bad mucker, 21 May 2007
By Mr. Alyn T. Mead (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you intend to buy the game and you know how to read then its worth getting this book. The book is a prequel to the game and will help you feel closer to the characters and mass effect universe when you play the game.
I enjoy sci-fi novels but sometimes they can be a bit too heavy on techno-jargon and can go over a readers head with the science.
Mass effect - Revelation is a very easy to read story for any reader, there's not much in the way of jargon at all.
A short and very enjoyable book, but now i want more and will have to wait for the game to come out.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant read! I just need the game now!, 11 Jul 2007
By CrazyBlue (Cornwall, UK) - See all my reviews
I can't wait for the Mass Effect, then I read the prologue for teh book on the internet. And as it was really good I decided to get the book. I wasn't dissapointed. The story is really good, and contains twists and incredible detail (sometimes too much). Also it gives you a great insight into the Mass Effect universe. Now seeing the new trailer today, it makes more sence knowing more about the history. If you like sci-fi, you'll like this, and if you can't wait for MAss Effect you have to get this!!
