Beyond the Gate

I just finish reading Beyond the Gate, today, and boy was was I amazed! The excitement, and action-packed adventure is still there! This time Gallen O'Day, his girlfriend, now wife, Maggie Flynn, and there very good friend Orrick the talking bear, are on a journey to Tremonthin, a very distant planet to help a Tharrin woman, Ceravenne. Gallen, Maggie, Orrick and their new friend Tallea, as well as Ceravenne, set out to do go, and have a hell of a time getting to their distination. If you've read the first book, The Golden Queen, then I recommend that you read Beyond the Gate, cause it's just as exciting, with alittle romance thrown into it. Enjoy!!

I enjoyed this middle novel in the Golden Queen trilogy. It has doesn't have quite the same wide scope as the other two books, but is fun to read. I sometimes got lost in the ethical discussions. But the story is fast paced and intriguing and the characters ring true to what Wolverton had set up in the first novel. I highly recommend it!
