A rollercoaster tale of alien invasion using a gate from elsewhere that opens on a Martian moon. Based on a popular video game, it properly fills its pages with shoot-em-up as a Marine charges into the alien nest in search of survivors. A blurb compared it to Starship Troopers. I wouldn't go that far, but it does have a plot and it will hold your attention. ( ) Oh My Word! This just about has to be the worst book, grammar, plot, characterization, that I have ever read! It was basically reading the game with some token things thrown in, like conversation, love interest, duty, despair and hope. It was just plain horrible. Continuity was almost nil; to call the characters cardboard cutouts would insulting to cardboard. The game is awesome, this novel, not so much. I can see why someone would read this first one, because they are into Doom, but after getting through this trainwreck, I don't see how the next 3 books were ever published. I certainly won't be reading them! The shortest way I can summarize this book is this: It's like someone wrote down gameplay and packed it full of erotic jokes. I bought this one as a test to see what video game based literature was like. I shouldn't have chosen this one to begin with. There are good books that are based on video games, but this is not one of them. I found the premise of the book interesting, especially since I played DOOM and DOOM II way back then. However, in some ways the book is too close to the game. The explore-room-fight-monster routine gets repetitive (even the protagonist comments on that!), and ultimately the book does not add much to the already-thin DOOM plot. Still, I'll probably give the next book in the series a chance to do better. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
