Book two begins after the game ends. Oktober 24, 2008
Detra Fitch (USA)
It has been twelve years since scientist Kahlee Sanders survived the Sidon massacre. And it was thirteen years ago that a toxic disaster exposed thousands of pregnant human females and their unborn children to a deadly cloud of element zero on the Yandoa colony. Some of the human children were born with biotic abilities. All of them are now at the Jon Grissom Academy, orbiting the planet Elysium. Sanders works with these kids in the Ascension Project. She helps them adjust to and harness their extraordinary powers.
Twelve-year-old Gillian "Gigi" Grayson is borderline autistic. Her mental condition makes her emotionally distant, yet she is still the program's most promising student. She has also become the favorite of Hendel Mitra's, chief of security. But unknown to Sanders and Hendel is that Gigi's father is part of Cerberus, a radical pro-human terrorist group led by one known only as the Illusive Man. When Grayson visits Gigi, it is to help Cerberus perform illegal experiments on her.
When the Cerberus plot is revealed, Grayson takes Gigi away. Sanders and Hendel convinces Grayson to take them with Gigi. Cerberus is hot on their trail as the trio search for a way to save Gigi. Help comes from a totally unexpected source.
**** If you are playing the MASS EFFECT computer game, know that this story takes place AFTER the game ends. If you have not played the game as yet, but plan to, wait until you finish the game before you begin reading this story. This story reveals spoilers by mentioning things that happen in the game.
You do not have to read the first book, REVELATION, to fully enjoy this story. Both seem to be stand-alone tales. Even though the main character, Kahlee Sanders, was a big part of the first story, the events have little, if anything, to do with this story's plot. You will never feel lost or confused. The author only mentions things new readers need to know, so you will not be bogged down with a lot of catching up narratives. From the beginning until the ending, this entire story oozes with danger and intrigue. Drama, drama, drama! ****

Mitreissende Geschichte im Mass Effect Universum September 19, 2008
Mercutio
3 aus 3 fanden die folgende Rezension hilfreich
Ein durchaus lesenswertes Buch, dessen Geschichte auf dem ersten Buch "Revelation" und dem Videospiel aufbaut. Mir persoenlich gefaellt der Stil des Autors Drew Karpyshyn sehr gut, da er, wie im Vorgaenger Revelation, die Geschichte mit mehreren Handlungsstraengen aufbaut und diese langsam zusammenfuehrt. Dabei gefaellt mir besonders, dass er im oder kurz vor dem Moment der groessten Spannung die Person und Oertlichkeit wechselt, um sich von diesem Handlungstrang dem Ereignis zu naehern. Zusammenfassend kann man von einer extrem spannenden (ohne langen Vorlauf), mit vielen unerwarteten Ueberraschungen ausgestatteten Geschichte im Mass Effect Universum sprechen, die gerade fuer Fans, aber auch fuer Science-Fiction/Thriller Leser besonders lesenswert ist!
