I've just finished reading Pilgrim Stars and I must say, it was an incredibly enjoyable read - props to Peter Telep. I didn't think I was going to get into it as much as I did due to the fact that I wasn't a big fan of the movie, but this book has made me reconsider my stance. I really liked the pace and feel of the book, it reminded me of the movies characters and atmosphere - and I'm actually ready to give the flick another go, with open arms. And that's something I wasn't willing to do up until now...
Anyway I know that there was a sequel to the book but for some reason it hasn't been released. Which is a shame because the story had so much more to give plus there were interesting characters, such as Markorshk, Santyana, Aristee and Karista, that I wanted to know more about. Is there any chance of the sequel being released - or should we consider it part of the lost WC holy treasures, next to WC2 SNES?
Also I really liked how fleshed out the Pilgrim aspect of the WC universe became in this book. I know the whole "paranormal" thing has been done to death, but it's handled with class in Pilgrim Stars and I think the concept should remain in the WC universe, in future games and books. Anyone agree/disagree? It's a touchy issue with most WC fans - but I don't really know how most of you feel about it...I've been won over with this book, as you can tell.
And another thing: This was the first WC book I ever read - and want more. What are the other novels, and which is the best? Cheers for any replies
