Review by:
Frank Aaker
on Jan. 14, 2013 :
Imagine the Universal Soldier, Robo-Cop, and the Exterminator all rolled into one and you have Grailem. He's the Lone Ranger of the galaxy, an experiment gone wrong, an invincible android with a human brain who makes it his business to rid the galaxy of anything un-humanoid. His crusade spans thousands of years. Feared and rejected by all, including those he rescues, he eventually realises his mission has a deeper motivation: the search for companionship and tranquility.
Disappointingly, Gary L. Beer's writing style spoiled my enjoyment of this otherwise excellent story – I found his extensive use of passive exposition (to explore Grailem's inner and outer life) left me feeling excluded and detached from his futuristic world.
But don't be put off, if unremitting detailed description is your thing, then this book is well worth reading.
