Customer Reviews

Definitly my favorite book

Hands down, this is THE only book that I have ever recommended people to read. This book is so creepy in certain parts that i cried....(but lets not mention that to people)...I've read it twice and i bought it a year ago. I let my roomate read it and shes in love with it as well. If you want a good read then buy this! I bet you'll find it a hard book to put down!

Haunting, Engaging Tale

Othersyde is a complex weave of teenagers trying to establish themselves in society and get the respect of their peers, but also the eerie tale of an unseen force trying to wreak havoc upon the world.From the tick-tick-ticking of the telegraph key, to the foreshadowing of Babylon 5 (not yet a series or pilot at time of publish) - Straczynski has a way of pulling you in, locking you up, and then spitting you back out wanting more.If you can find this book - you will not be disappointed!

Out of Print But Worth The Effort To Find...

My brother surprised me one day by handing me a copy of Othersyde. He found it at a library sale. It's a great read in the same creative vain as Stephen King. Fans of Babylon 5 will not be disappointed by the horror genre, and they will see some references to B5 as well. Frankly, I think the publisher is stupid by not re-releasing this book based on JMS' current popularity. Best of luck to You in Your search for The Othersyde.
