Robotech: The Macross Saga: Doomsday (Robotech #4-6)
From the Paperback edition.
pseudonym of authors Brian Daley and James Luceno.
This second trio was more excellent books. They were just as good as the first three and continued while finishing the saga. However there were some inconsistencies. So at the end you had the SDF-1 fire the main cannon at the enemy ship. It mortally wounds the ship but the ship still crashes in. This is nothing like the first series where when they fired the ship they took out 1-3 enemy ships. Other then that, it was a great series.
Challenge: Book made from TV show.I loved the Anime as a child, and was so offended when my mom called it a soap opera. Then I rewatched the cartoon, and read the book. She was right. It's a soap opera. And it feels so much like they made up the plot as they went along.Still, I couldn't make myself stop reading until we got to the ending I wanted to see. What's wrong with me?
Fun read, enjoyed from beginning to end. Does anyone read this series without starting from the point of being a childhood Robotech fan? I very much doubt it. Theres little point in criticizing the plot or even the dialogue, the authors were tied to a timeline and a pre-existing start and end point. The truly enjoyable part is getting to know more of the background motivations for the characters, even if the relationship between Rick & Lisa is painful to observe, and we are forced to fall
After reading Battlehymn this book became my back seat reader. I try to keep a book in the backseat of my car so that I have something to read when my wife is shopping or I am waiting outside a doctors office. I would recommend this Book to anyone who is a Robotech fan but to no one else. The writing is excellent but since I am not a fan of Robotech I found this extremely long and boring.

I will start by saying I am biased about this book. For one Robotech the animated series was my favorite anime when I was young and the first 'serious' cartoon I watched. However as reviews are personal opinions(especially ones you aren't getting paid for) I loved this first collection of Robotech books.For one, in short amount of time James Luceno and Brian Daley(RIP) had to write these stories as Jack McKinney I feel they have a high standard of quality. Both veteran SciFi writers and personalpseudonym of authors Brian Daley and James Luceno.
