Will Johnson read and liked Margy's review of American Rebel: The Life of Clint Eastwood:

One of my favorite things in science fiction that especially translates to games is the world building. And the people at BioWare have a reputation for building broad and cohesive worlds. I also knew going in that this was going to be a trashy video game summer read and in that respect it didn't dissapoint.

In the aknowledgments, Karpyshyn thanks his editor who "helped make my novel as good as it could possibly be in the face of some rather tight deadlines." That gives you an idea of what to expect. The world had been thought out extensively already by the creative team at BioWare, and this story conviently squeezed right in.

All in all, if you were going to read this book anyway, you are probably going to enjoy it on some level. It's not Tolstoy, but on the other hand, it's also not Tolstoy. If you liked Mass Effect and wanted to get some more background on Anderson and Saren than this is a whole lot better than fan fiction. Just don't expect to be Blown Away.(less) "
