All A's. One of my faves.
ABB for me. Loved the plot, thought some of the characters were a bit "obvious", and I'm really not a fan of the Mia story.

Roland would have understood.
All A's. This is among the strongest of the DT books. What I like about it is that it actually has a solid three act structure to it. Yes, there's more after the end of the battle that carries us into the next book, but this one could still stand alone quite well. The character development is quite good, particularly Callahan (about whom I would gladly have read another 500 pages) and the evolution of Jake's character.
A+A+A+...A carzy ass robot, Flyin' Plates and OY bowing with his foot on his heels...only SK can come up with this
If it weren't for integrity...what would you be? Ka is a wheel.....
CCB on this one.
Loved it, my second fave DT book, right behind DotT.
AAB - This was a great book.

BAA. I LOVE the story, but really hate the Mia subplot, so the plot gets a B.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.

I hated the Mia subplot too, Sam, but I thought it was executed well and thus I still gave that an A.
A,A,A.
all A's,
2,4,5 all get all A's from me, the others lose points for certain aspects.
A, B, B.
All A's, of course - this is the bear's absolute favorite.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm reading it now, I'll rate it it I'm done before the poll's over.

Loved it, Loved it, Loved it!

good story, but it dragged on a bit for me. it seems to be harder to read each time.
I want me some of those crazy-ass Oriza dishes
This and DOTT are my favorites... usually. I was totally into the series and this book starts to finish is amazing. After the back story and flashback heavy Wizards (which I love too) this digs back into the tet with action and developments all over. All A's from me.
"Please be calm! Remember that these things exist on a different level of reality than the one your on now." -Doc#1/ Clotho:
ACA, but it's still one of my favorite DT books. C for character development because I think Slightman's conflict was too superficial.
But I loved the callahan Backstory. It was great to see what happened after Salem's Lot
That was one of the very few redeeming qualities of this book.Originally Posted by razz
