5.0 out of 5 stars Echo the first Review - Outstanding, 24 July 2001
I had been waiting for this book for months and it did not disappoint!

This series has an amazing ability to draw you into the story. I found myself thinking about it even when not reading.

This is no simple good guys and bad guys story. The expansion of Geometry of Shadows is excellent! As with all B5 inspired by JMS nothing is quite what it at first seems. Galen hunting down the one he wishes to crush and destroy only to find he holds answers to the questions Galen is asking! He then reveals the ultimate secret of the Techno-Mages which throws Galen into such a dark place you wonder if he will find a way out in the next book.

It will be a long wait!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Techo Mage series got even better, 22 July 2001
By jkekoni@akumiitti.fi (Helsinki,Finland) - See all my reviews
After this book the "Passign of techo mages" is as integral part of B5 universe as "Legions of Fire" and "Dark Genesis" even techo mages newer had major role in shadow war.

If you read this you'll learn why Vorlons dislike techo mages despite/becouse of the similarities in their philosophies.

You'll also learn why Baylock and some other techo mages have so high respect of the discipline.

Ther is also more about Vorlons especially Kosh and reasons for techno mage's secresy.

You'll find some backround about the reasons why the rules of Vorlon/Shadow war were broken.

You'll learn a new side of Galen character thas was not really visible in the Crusade. The character besomes as multi-dimensional as Delen, Londo or Sheridan.

As any other B5 book, reading this probably makes no sense if you have not seen the TV serie.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, but not all that Suprising., 5 Sep 2001
By Mr. A. J. D. White - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I would have to say I loved this book from start to finish with only one exception..... that is I want part 3 NOW!!!!

This book follows on brilliantly from Casting Shadows, developing some of the characters we were introduced to in that book into fully fleged people in their own right. It lets us watch how learn more the truth about themselves and how this truth changes them, it also has some very nice tyins to the TV series and gives us a new perspective on what wasn going on back then in the series.

However as I said in the title I didn't find anything revealed in this book to be a suprise, it wasn't blatently obvious to me what was going to happen (like some films when you know the end) but it didn't grab me unawares and change every thing either.

I would say that if you love B5 and can read you should read this book, but you need to read part 1 first... I would also read this trilogy before you read the Centari one as that has a spoiler in it regarding the mages...
