Customer Reviews

Great prequel

Star Wars has given Prequels a bad name, but Veiled Alliances proves that they can be good. This look at the Saga helps explain how things came to be exactly how they are, providing an interesting plot to go alongside the beautiful illustrations. Recommended for anyone who's read any of the Saga books.

If you love Dune you'll probably love this series

I started reading Kevin J Anderson's Saga of the seven suns series when i was waiting for some of the newer Dune books by Kevin J and Brian Herbert to be released. I LOVE this series. As usual, war and conflict have tied various worlds together in conflict. And there's that touch of love story that adds a special touch to sci-fi novels. You can see style similarities between this and the Machine Crusades books earlier in the Newer Dune series. The characters are always well written, and the story line engaging. Always entertaining, it's hard to put these books down.

4.5 Stars

Anderson's Saga of the Seven Suns is a rich and sprawling science fiction epic. This gorgeously rendered graphic novel provides background information for the series - a prequel. Most of the story conatined here can be gleaned from the first two novels of the series. However, this is an alternative format, with beautiful and well drawn art work, that is a nice companion to the series. The plot is limited but clearly revealed and leads directly into the series. Full color throughout, glossy pages. A worthwhile addition to the "Saga," especially for fans of graphic novels.

Interesting, if short

While I thought this should have shown more Ildiran kiths (I was really interested in the Singers), this is an interesting prequel, that gives alot of very interesting information. I hope KJA does more.
