LOL, every time someone asks to know the ending, they get a negative opinion of it.

[HeroxMatt]

So this book is essentially Batman and Robin to Burton's Batman/Batman Returns?

And how!

From the ending summaries people have just sent me (thanks by the way) and all the other errors, I cannot fathom how this got made. Bioware seriously need to make this bollocks non-canon ASAP.

Can someone pm me the summary of the ending? Thanks!

[Dexi]

I would very much appreciate it someone could send me any kind of info on the book... Ending, summary, anything that would convince me to buy / not to buy the book. I've read some of the errors but I'm more interested in the plot itself...

By the looks of this thread, the book is bad, lol...

It wouldn't have even been so bad if Dietz had been commissioned to write a new book based on his own characters and another ME setting.

But featuring Gillian, Hendel and Nick (not to mention Kahlee and Anderson) from the other novels, and completely butchering their characterisations and stoylines, just made me really bitter about the whole thing.

That's two or three of Karpyshyn's books that are, plot-wise, now basically pointless. They have no relevance. Every story thread and character conflict they contained has ended.

I'd actually say it's worse, since Robin, Alfred and commissioner Gordan would have needed to be killed off in ridiculously retarded ways for it to be more like this book.

I think Bioware should just cancel the release of the book and scrap it entirely. Pretend it never happened. Pretend it was all a bad dream... Then apologise publicly for being wet behind the ears and not copyediting it properly.

Oh hey Gem. Linked here by me on facebook, hey now.

"For Kahlee Sanders and David Anderson, brushing her teeth and eating his cereal would never be the same again..."

Wondrous writing.

Butchered entirely. Its abysmally depressing.

Lawl. Seriously? 

That's like something a kid would write 

That's not actually a line from the novel. But the novel's writing is so bad, people can't tell the fake lines from the real ones.

Yes, its THAT. BAD.

Is that actually in it?lol I can no longer tell when people are just cracking jokes at the expense of the book or if they are actually being serious.

[LPPrince]

Fake line. But the fact that you couldn't tell is the whole point and problem.

The thing is, the previous books were pretty good. Not genre-defying Booker prize material, but enjoyable.

This thought...

It's like you're having a four-course meal, and after three good, if a little bland, courses the waiter comes in with portions of s**t for all and then is asks you to pay extra for them.

Edited because spelling > me

"This is my fifth attempt at burning this sodding thing" ... and then it still wouldn't burn! 

*is in tears* 

I would've gone further had I been filming the destruction of the novel.

I'd of pelvic thrusted it and teabagged it a little.
