For those who want to know more about their favorite villian, Alfred Bester, this book covers his childhood, and most of his life. Although portrayed as a villian, from his point of view, it becomes clear that he believes his people,(telepaths), are involved in a war with the rest of humanity, and that he thinks normals started it. There is some justification to this, but the response from the telepaths is to murder normals, and eventually to join with the shadows. It's not until the final "Bester", book, that we learn all about him, but this book gives most of the information, and is fairly well written. Dark Genisis, is the book that tells how bester came to be raised by psi corps, and of course, the last one is Final Reconning, which deals with Bester's last years on the run, and trial. Overall this is a gripping set of books, but if you only want to know more about Bester, skip the first one, he's only a baby at the end of it.Read full review
