Nice. This is a real novel, NOT a novelization of an episode of the series. And it's not bad. If you enjoy the first year of the television show you will probably enjoy spending an afternoon or two reading this novel. It has the same tone as the show and the story is set up nicely. The ending is a little predictable (if you make the mistake I did and read the blurb on the back cover).

The writing is above the usual level of these type of books, although the writer is a little awkward with some of his descriptions of action sequences. But better than usual for what is essentialy the least prestigious type of for hire hack work a writer can take.
