Countermeasures: Forbidden Borders #3

Author: W. Michael Gear

Year: 1993

Abstract:
The great war between the remaining human governments within the Forbidden Borders has been fought. Staffa kar Therma is now being persued by the Mag Comm. An alien computer so powerful that it can predict with accuracy where events will happen and when, and even influence individuals to do its bidding. Staffa's son, Sinklar, still hasn't decided whether to accept Staffa as his father, or kill him. The clone of Staffa's first love, Chrysla, is still hunting him and his family. Can Staffa survive long enough to break free of the Forbidden Borders, and provide humanity a hope for survival?

Spectre's Review
It all comes together in this one. The ending has a pretty cool surprise, and still leaves a bit open perhaps for a future series. Chrysla's clone is pretty scary. The technology discussed is quite interesting, but I don't want to go into too much detail and ruin it for you. I loved it, and it sure is a fun ride. This whole series was very well put together.

Spectre's Rating
An excellent close to a good trilogy.
