SHATNER AN AUTHOR--WHO KNEW?

Tekwar is a great first novel. This book has everything, beautiful girls, killer androids, mind altering computer chips and lots of action. Jake Cardigan is a cop who has been framed for dealing Tek, a mind altering computer chip, and sentenced to the "freezer" for 15 years. Cosmos, a private investgative firm has need of his services and gets him released after only 4 years. Things change a lot for Jake in four years. Jake has to venture to Mexico to find Dr. Kittridge and his daughter Beth who have been kidnapped by Tek drug lords for the anti-tek device they have developed.This book is fast paced and an excellent read.

It's better than the one by LaForge.

Pretty good modern pulp by Billy Shat. Required reading for all entry-level Shatnerologists. For those less enlightened, if this doesn't convert you, nothing will.

Better than you think

The bulk of science fiction is lousy. There are a few geniuses (Asimov, Clarke, Ellison) who make the genre better than it is. TekWar is somewhere in between. Better than most of what's out there, but otherwise pretty middle of the road. It is also enjoyable.

An excellent first try

As soon as I started reading, I couldn't put this book down. It was everything I expected and more. I could picture all the events and the people while reading and that made it extra special. For anyone who enjoys science fiction this has to be on the list(at the top)! Once I started with this book,I did not like to put it down and the serial of TEKWAR books were a priority of mine to get and keep and reread. Jake Cardigan is one of my now favorite characters,thanks to William Shatner. I do hope to see more of these books in the future.

TEK WAR IS EXCELLENT

Okay I'll admit I merely bought this book because Shatner is the author. I, however, found TEK WAR to be fun and exciting to read. Jake Cardigan is a wonderfully realistic protagonist who is not without his own vices. After being parolled from the Freezer, Cardigan tries to find out who framed him for dealing the virtual reality drug TEK. This book is great. When I started it I couldn't put it down
