Product Description:
The explosive space epic continues, as the techno-mages come face-to-face with the devastating evil of the Shadows . . .
War against the Shadows is inevitable, and the ruling Circle has ordered the techno-mages into hiding. Many are unhappy with this decision--none more so than Galen, the only mage who has faced the Shadows and lived. But the Shadows aren't Galen's only enemy--he is driven to hunt and kill Elizar, the traitor who murdered the beautiful mage Isabelle while Galen stood by helplessly, his hands tied by the Circle's sacred code he had sworn to follow.
Now a new mission awaits as the Circle contrives a plan that may enable the five hundred mages to escape without leaving a trace. Dispatched to the Shadow's ancient capitol to uncover the enemy's plans, Galen will find everything he so desperately seeks--including a shocking legacy that threatens to consume his very soul.
Babylon 5 created by J. Michael Straczynski

I love how this book interweaves with the TV episode (though I don't think we needed to hear so much about the Green and Purple Drazi.) We learned about all the clever double meanings to events, and the larger picture taking place in the background. At the same time, this was much more tragic than I usually see in tv tie in books. From my perspective, too many beloved characters died needlessly. And the technomages were so nobly, tragically, self sacrificing that I wanted to kick them all in the ... Read More

I do not know who (jms or the author) is responsible for the decision for books 2 and 3 of this series to closely interweave and usually re-write the significance of events in the tv series (in this book the season 2 ep. geometry of shadows is the main one), but I think a very good story from this theme could have been written without. so now the events in Geometry of Shadows have completely different meaning, including Sheridan knowing about the false departure tactic and aiding it, londo's apology ...

Whew. I thought the first part of the Technomage trilogy was great, but the second one surpasses it easily. A word of warning: this is a model example of a book that you just can't put down once you've gotten into it. You might waste a good night's sleep reading, like I did.
Take all the angst and all the action from the first book and multiply it by ten, and it might come near this. As troubled as Galen, the nearly initiated young technomage was in the first part, here he ends up going seriously ... Read More

In this second installment to the B5 novelization emphisizing the Techno Mage characters. We learn about the secret history of the ancient technology called the Chrystalis and where it came from. We learn about the ecstacy and agony of the Mages. Their limitations and the extent of their dedication to; 'The Code'. However, I have heard that The Techno Mages are made up of numerous different species? Yet these novels only talk about two, Centauri and Human?

Only two books out of the thousands I have read in my life so disgusted me with the blatant stupidity of the main character, that I have literally thrown the book. This was one.
Spoiler Alert!
