Chronicle Supposing Books Jacinto's Remnant (Gears of War #2)

Based on the blockbuster Xbox game, this is the stunning story of the men and women who stood between a planet and total destruction–and now have to face the consequences of their actions.

After a brutal fifteen-year war for survival, the Coalition of Ordered Governments is forced to destroy mankind’s last city in a final bid to stop the Locust Horde. As the survivors flee Jacinto, they must contend with the last of the Locust, bent on vengeance, as they struggle to stay alive in an icy wilderness. Marcus Fenix, Dom Santiago, and their fellow Gears fight to get Jacinto’s refugees to a safe haven, but find themselves in a lawless new world where the enemy is human–and as desperate and dangerous as any grub.

Appraise Containing Books Jacinto's Remnant (Gears of War #2)

The second entry in the Gears series is as solid as the first. Its does a good job at keeping the characters from the game true to their personalities and traits while filling in the story gaps between game entries. The story takes place right after the Gears 2 game; when humanities last governed city Jacinto is sunk by focused nuclear blasts in an attempt to destroy the underground locust tunnel directly below the city. Occasionally, the story shifts to explore a past timeline of when the

Jacinto's Remnant (Gears of War) by Karen Traviss Del Rey352 pages isbn 0345499441Jacinto's Remnant was a great idea for a book because it was based on the best-selling xbox games, Gears of War 1 and 2. If you've played the video game, then you have a good idea about what the book is about and understand it better than others who have not. The video game had a great storyline and the character developement was great, but this book highlights all the little things and specifically focuses on the

The book, like the others in the series parallels two stories in two different time periods. This book, I found to not have as climatic of plot as the others; the future timeline is really just toddling along, and I imagine that the historical timeline was supposed to be the building story. Unfortunately, because the events happened in the past, you already know how it all plays out before the historical tale reaches those points.You can tell that the author is setting up for the next book in

Review from BadelyngeJacinto's Remnant is the second book in the Gears of War series following on directly after the events portrayed in Gears of War 2 the popular Xbox 360 game. The humans of Sera have destroyed their last major stronghold Jacinto in a desperate attempt to flood the underground lair of the Locust. The survivors flee in search of a new refuge, hoping that the monsters from below have been all but wiped out. The book documents the Gears and the civilians of Jacinto scouting for a

As before, Ms. Traviss has shown herself to have a great grasp on the characters of Delta Squad. Unlike Aspho Fields, her previous book in this setting, in Jacinto's Remnant she tackled the implications of peace after ninety years of war. A recommended read for GOW fans and lovers of sci-fi militaria.

People give the fiction in Gears a hard time for being shallow, but have to admit I love the games and have found the way the comics (and now the two novels I've read) have expanded on the world and the backstories. They add a lot of the character development and world-building which the game doesn't take a breather to fill out, and that feeds back into my enjoyment of the games, with characters popping in and out of the different mediums. There's a macho team melodrama to the Gears franchise
