The author certainly gives us a rollercoaster of a ride when the crew comes across a map they hope will lead to riches. I like the way something about the map is almost sinister, a foreboding of things to come. This book deals with the verse that was, and River’s origins. In some ways a simple plot, but well put together to form an action-packed sequence of events that would equal the scale of a film more than a series episode. A well-constructed original story. ( )

Generations
(Firefly #4)
by Tim Lebbon
This book has the Captain winning a strange map from a card game which gets the attention of the Alliance rebels. The map is also catnip for River. Only she can make sense of it. Where it leads the crew is somewhere they really shouldn't be!
The characters didn't seem as developed in this book as the others. I felt it was a story about them but I wasn't there like books 1 and 2. It was still a very exciting story.
I listened to the audio version. ( )

This series of books are most definitely meant for fans of the show and movie. I loved these books and forgave them all their flaws because the characters and world are much beloved by me. ( )

I had been looking forward to 'Generations' for a few reasons. As much as I've enjoyed Lovegrove's take on the 'verse, I wanted to see what another author could do, and I really, really wanted to hear more about Earth That Was and the ships that brought humanity away.

This book should have been a perfect fit, but something felt a little off. There was a little trouble with most of the characters not sounding distinct and I think the plot was hampered by the demands of staying in-continuity. All of the novels takes place between the end of the television series and before the 'Serenity' film. The subject of this book is a map leading to one of the generation ships that brought humanity to the 'verse 500 years ago. This is mythic. This is huge....this has to resolve in a way that doesn't effect the status quo at the beginning of 'Serenity'. Yikes. No wonder the book had to be delayed, it probably took several 'final' drafts to pass continuity standards.

Hampered as the story was, I could still appreciate the setting and the chunks o' lore that 'Generations' offers up. It just wasn't as satisfying as the others have been.

It was just about OK, but I didn't feel that it got the voices of the Firefly crew right, they were too undifferentiated, and the adventure seemed unlikely for them. ( )
