Format:Mass Market Paperback
If you enjoyed the first in this series 'Go Quest Young Man' then this is a MUST. As is the Third in the series 'How The Quest Was Won'. A great gripping Xena tale that is nicely true to the characters... and NOT just Xena... I loved the way Gabrielle came into her own in this trilogy. I would definitely recomend this for those new to the Xenaverse. May not be as deep as some fans would like, but it is intended as a light entertaining quick read book.
Format:Paperback
This book was good. The best part was that there is finally a Xena book including my favorite character, Joxer.
Format:Paperback
As a fan of both the series X:WP and Ru Emerson, I naturally looked forward to reading this book. Unfortunately, my expectations were disappointed.
Not only does Go Quest Young Man prominently feature the series' least effective and most unpopular character (the ratings fall for episodes featuring him, which should have told someone something) but its most powerful draw, the friendship between the two leading characters, is virtually ignored.
In fact the novel seems designed to be as unappealing to dyed-in-the-wool Xenites as possible. The wretched Joxer's name appears virtually everywhere, while Xena and Gabrielle are kept apart for all but 28 pages - and Gabrielle is presented for much of the time as a bitchy brat with pms!
I hope the next book shows a closer acquaintance with the series and some appreciation of its true strengths. It has a devoted, long-term audience, but this offering is not likely to satisfy many of them.
