Customer Reviews

Such confusion!

Why are these people reviewing Berserker when the book at the top of the page is Berserker Blue Death, a wholly different Berserker title, a 1985 novel (and without a colon)? I have just heard the audio book of Berserker Blue Death. A fine story, among Saberhagen's best. Meanwhile, shape up, people. Look at Saberhagen's bibliography. And someone get that confusing colon removed.

Berserker: A strong entry in a classic SF series

Well worth reading, but I must admit, I really like Saberhagen (except the last of the Sword series which went on far too long).

Character and plot development is very strong

A fairly decent Berserker book. Not a lot of action, but the character and plot development is very strong for a SciFi novel. In Blue Death we watch the breakdown of Captain Domingo who believes the Berserker "Old Blue" has killed his entire family. Domingo is so single focused on Blue, he doesn't notice everything else going on around him, some of it extraordinary. One note however, the last few pages (actually the conclusion) were really stupid. That is just a testament to the strength of the rest of the story though, that it overcame the silly ending.

A Berserker Rollercoaster

An exhilirating thrill ride in an exotic setting. This is a great Berserker book. The middle of the book dragged some, but it was worth it with the revelation of one of the Milkpail nebula's big mysteries, and the heartpounding extended climax when the man, Niles Domingo, finally goes head to head with his long sought after arch enemey, the Berserker Leviathan. Not to mention a shell-shocking surprise ending. What a rush!Oh yeah, there's even a subtle but very meaningful implied connection to another Berserker book discovered toward the end. Exactly the kind of thing I love about the Berserker series.Get your hands on this one if you can!

Man vs. Machine

A story about one man and one berserker, out in the middle of space, fighting to the death (if a machine can be killed). If you are a Berserker fan, this is a book you have to have.
