Lame!. My, oh my, that was lame. Yes, Max Allan Collins' "Skin Game". It's a tie-in novel to Dark Angel and it takes place during and right after the series finale Freak Nation. Well, let me tell you, if the show was planned to continue in this direction, then I'm happy that it ended when it did.
You know, when I picked up this book, I thought that it would expand the main players, Max, Logan, Alec, Joshua but all we got was secondary characters - Otto Gottlieb and Agent Thompson. Those two had more scenes and got more background info than any other character in the book. Max was her usual bitchy self, Logan played the good little puppy that heeled whenever she ordered, Joshua and Alec were reduced to two scenes, other than that they were just a part of the crowd... Ick.

Skin Game (Dark Angel). The 1st sequel to the awesome TV series. It takes you through a seige as the transgenics from Manticore are exposed to the rest of the world. It is set in Terminal City and the rest of Seattle as Max and her buddies try to figure out a sting of violent mystery killings in the City. Thought to be done by a transgenic, the ordinaries aren't taking too lightly to the thought of a powerful murderer loose in Seattle. The cops and US army as well as the National Guard pressure the transgenics and Max undergoes stressful negotiations to try and resolve the problem...The book is brilliant and a must have in any fans' collection

Skin Game. Great book. It keeps true to the story and characters, just like Before the Dawn, but also shows development in them. My only complaint is that in the recap of the end of the tv series that is made at the very beginning, some details and speech are incorrect, which annoyed me.However, once i'd picked it up, i couldn't put it down. It's just as captivating and exciting as the show. If you love dark angel, I garantee you WILL love this book.

A kickass book from a kickass series. I am a total Dark Angel fan but I was proper angry when I found out that series 2 was the very end and that series 3 was cancelled so I ordered this book to see what happens after 'freak nation' and I can assure you, it is excellent and that's coming from someone who barely reads books, I mean I read it in 1 day flat coz it was that good. The way it was written was easy to access and the characters are well described in such a way that it remains interesting rather than just boring. Even non-fans are gonna enjoy it coz it is that good but fans will enjoy it slightly more, seeing as they watched the series.
