Spectre's Review
First off, get ready for the best read you'll have for a while. This quality of series is very hard to come by. Damien is a good
man, who is fighting to save mankind from destruction. Tarrant is an evil man, who can't afford to have mankind destroyed,
or he'll die. Both decide to work together for greater good of mankind. Over time, Tarrant softens a little (but not too much).
Damien hardens a little (but not too much). And together they fight against the greatest of all evils, mankind's darkest
nightmares. The characters are arfully put together into a plotline that is solid, and nicely paced. I can't recommend the
series to the faint of heart, but for those who love good sci-fi, fantasy, and horror, this has it all.
Spectre's Rating
Perfect.
