A terrific read for Dark Angel fans
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Beautifully written, 'Before The Dawn' would be required reading for die-hard Dark Angel fans even if the series were still running. Max Allan Collins has given us what we crave -- the Dark Angel "fix" fans have needed since we first heard the series was going to be cancelled early in 2002. This book isn't just terrific brain candy -- it takes a deeper look at some things we saw in the show (such as Max's thoughts as she escaped, and life with her first 'adopted' family), and it fills in a lot of gaps in Max's history as a Manticore escapee on the run in pre- and post-pulse America. I'll be watching eagerly for future DA works from Mr. Collins.
Excellent Novelization!

The book brilliantly fills in the details of Max's life, from the escape in '09 to Seattle when the series begins. I could barely put the book down. I am not so patiently waiting for the next book, that will continue the TV Series.

Max Allan Collin's prequel to the hit tv series is a grand slam. Dark Angel fans will be pleased when they buy this book. They won't be dissapointed. I can't wait for Dark Angel: Skin Game!
Best Book EVER!

I just wanted to let every one how much I enjoyed this book. I was sad for it to end! If you love Dark Angel this book is for you! It makes the show much more interesting. The book was wonderful and I can't wait for the next one to come out. :)
Excellent for all DA fans

DARK ANGEL: BEFORE THE DAWN is a fascinating prequel novel that is a treat for any DA fan to read. Max Collins has all the characters down pat, and the backgrounding he does for Max, Original Cindy, Logan, and the other regulars of the show is fascinating. After reading this book one can go back and view Season 1 and Season 2 of the series in a slightly different light, picking up clues that were not noticed before that lead back to Max's earlier life before she came to Seattle. Mr. Collins also does an excellent job of foreshadowing things-to-come in the DA universe, threads that will undoubtedly be continued in his DA sequel novel SKIN GAME which picks up the storyline after the last televised episode of the show. If you're a DARK ANGEL fan, please buy BEFORE THE DAWN! The read is well worth your time!
