Review: Better and Better
Rating: 5 out of 5

Best Aracadian novel yet.Beck is certainly a favourite writer of mine, but with this book he has completely cemented his place as one of the great authors of military thrillers (with a strong tinge of horror) of our time.The damaged soul that is Alex Hunter is seeming both more and less human at the same time, and the story of his internal struggle is nicely reflected in the external struggle he faces.The science is, as usual, believable and impeccable (at least to this layman), and the fantastic creature of the title is explained in the only way it could ever be.If you've missed out on reading Beck, start at the beginning of the series, and don't stop until you catch up.I couldn't put this one down.Absolutely deserving of a five out of five rating for this one.
