Parasite
I really did not like this book. It had it's moments, but it was a dreary slog
to reach the end. Seemingly pointless violence and nasty events percolate through
the book, and it's unsatisfying plot comes to an usatisfying conclusion. Those of
you who think that 'different' is automatically 'good' will love this book...the rest
of you should consider reading a different novel in the series.
Not Recommended.

Eternity Weeps
After the slog that was Parasite , I was pleasantly surprised by
Eternity Weeps. The plot was excellent, imaginative, and held my interest throughout.
What kept this book from rating even higher was the characterization of Jason...very, very
annoying, and was the only part of the book that made me happy to reach the end. Those who
don't like books in which the Doctor doesn't figure very much will not be too happy with this
book, but it is a good one, and might be a key one in understanding the upcoming series of Benny
books, depending on what happens in the last few Virgin books.
Recommended.
Companions: Benny and Jason, Chris Cwej.
