Book Review: ROGUE ANGEL OMMIBUS: FIRST THREE BOOKS IN THE SERIES
Summary: 4 Stars
As most of you know by now, this omnibus book contains three books, the first 3 novels in the ongoing ROGUE ANGEL series. The series rests at present at about 13 novels in total. The first 3 novels encased within this omnibus are: Destiny, Solomon's Jar, and The Spider Stone. For readers such as myself who held off reading this series, an omnibus such as this is not only economical but allows us to sample the series through a trio of its first stories.
I have shelves full of GOLD EAGLE books receiving 4 new ones through the mail ever other month. My collection goes back to the mid 1980s, but in all that time I have never seen another series such as this. At first I was sceptical but after reading the first story in this omnibus, I knew that GOLD EAGLE had another action adventure success on their hands. The Alex Archer name is probably a "house name" with each novel assigned out to various writers. And the difference in writing styles among the three books in this omnibus causes me to feel strongly that is the case. For example, while the first story (Destiny) flows smoothly along to pull the reader quickly in, the second story (Solomon's Jar) has an uneven beginning with some confusing aspects to it. With this in mind, and the manner in which the other GOLD EAGLES are authored, I expect 3 different writers for these 3 books.
I have the omnibus edition and interestingly this series of books is listed as 'science fiction' on the book's spine. And I find the curious mix of Joan of Arc's sword and modern day adventure very riveting. Since the main character, Annja Creed, is an archaeologist, my major in college, it allows the books to be placed throughout the world wherever artifacts and past cultures have abode.
If you enjoy science fiction, history, or archaeology, maybe these books are something to bring enjoyment to your reading agenda. To reiterate, the 14th ROGUE ANGEL entitled THE GOLDEN ELEPHANT rolls of the presses in September, 2008, with #15 SWORDSMANS LEGACY due out in November, 2008.
