The UNCUT version of the Southern Cross

Wow, fantastic book(s). The Southern Cross Warriors were even better in the novels than they were in the series. Also, where is Dr. Lazlo Zand in the series? Why was the seen with Dana and the Beers cut out? Anyway, the series was great, but these novels show us the whole story. The ending in the novel is extended, whereas the TV series leaves you with millions of questions. I highly recommend this book!

Dang.. no more Rick Hunter or the skull team.

Rick is now out of the picture, but Max's daughter Dana is the heroine of the story with her friend Bo. Dana is a mix of Human and Zentradi, seeing as how her dad was a human{Max} and her mom was a Zentradi{Miriya}. If you recall her encounter with Rick in Homecoming then you know that Rick wasn't to fond of Miriya. But I recomend this to all Robotech fans especially if they liked the Sentenal saga. That's all for now, See ya....

The Robotech Masters are here!

Earth finally must face the Robotech Masters in a battle over the last Protoculture Matrix. If the Masters can get it, they will become Masters of not only the Earth, but all of known space. Will Dana Sterling and the Army of the Southern Cross be able to stop the Robotech Masters? Will either side get to the Matrix before it degenerates into the Flower of Life which will draw the Invid? No matter what happens, Earth will never be the SAME!

great way to clear up protoculture!

before i read all three of these...masterpieces, i hardly knew anything about protoculture. well, after reading the war about protoculture, and the long summary of Zor's life just put things into motion in my mind and really cleaned things up! My personal favorited part is in Metal fire, and the final campaign against the masters is launched by the battle crazed supreme comander leanord. this is a great series and i hope you become a fan just as i. xoxoxox

This book continues the awsome saga of RoboTech.

Robotech: Southern Cross, Metal Fire, And the Final Nightmare continue the increadiably gripping saga of Robotech. Set twenty years after SDF 3 has left Earth, these books focus on the events of the Second Robotech War, but more actions of Dana Sterling and Bowie Grant, respectivly Maxamillo Sterling and Miria Sterling a half human half Zentradi and the cousin of Claudia Grant Killed in the climatic final battle between SDF 1 and Kyron the Backstabber. Both thier parents left on SDF 3 and they have grown up in the care of an United Earth Goverment and Souther Cross Army officer. In Southern cross Dana and Bowie graduate from the Robotech Academy and are assigined to the 15 ATAC's Hover Tanks. The Robotech Masters who send the Zentradi to capture SDF 1 over a generation ago have now come to capture Earth. But Dana now the leader of the 15 ATAc's (Alpha Tactical Aramored Corp) and the rest of the 15th vowed to fight to the end. These three books chronicle the events of the Second Robotech War, and The 15th's, Dan Sterling's, Bowie Grants, and all of Earths Battle. Robotech blends intriging characters with incrediable technology, and a great plot. These books had large expectations of them and they fill and overflow them. -Adam Conner adamconner@hotmail.com
