3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of plot holes and inconsistencies but it is based on comic book characters....
Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2020

This book stars the Fantastic Four and their powerful ally, the Silver Surfer, as they travel into the Negative Zone to face off against a Galactus like foe, Prodigion. Similar to Galatus, Prodigion sends out scouts to find suitable planets to destroy. Unlike Galactus, Prodigion does not suck the life energies out of a planet rather he infuses the planet with an over abundance of life energies, therefore chocking out (over populating) the existing life forms. However, the book never explained the motivation behind Prodigiion's actions. For Galactus, it was very clear - to stave of hunger. If the urge is to create life, then guide Prodigion to planets that needs a revival, for example but this point was never made clear. I won't get into other inconsistencies but suffice to say, a suspension of disbelieve is definitely required for reading this book. However, one of the threads I liked about this book the love story between the Silver Surfer and Tjellina. It is a tragic love story of love found and love lost. Recommended only if you like the Fantastic Four comic books. Also, buy it used on the cheap. Don't know why anyone would want to spend $20 buying new. Totally not worth new.

5.0 out of 5 stars A well written book that is true to Comic series
Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2000
This book is amazing. I have read many novels that are based on comic book series, and some of them do not capture the essential spirit of the series. Fortunately, Michael Jan Friedman has done just that. He has wonderful characterizes the Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer perfectly, giving homage to their illustratrous past. Every detail he wrote and George Perez illustrated hold true to the FF comics. The story is fresh and original, with twists and unexpected turns.
It is well worth your money to read this, but as you can tell from the other reviews either you like it or you don't. Well, I love it! Excelsior!

I read this back in 1999 and liked it ok then. i picked up this new copy and it still holds up. if you never have read it it moves kind of slow but the storie looses nothing from the pace being set... if your a fan of the FF then it is for you if your just a casual fan or reader then i would suggest a diffrent book.

5.0 out of 5 stars SKleefeld's Commentary
Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 1997
This is by far the best novelization of the Fantastic Four to date. On a mission of mercy the Silver Surfer requests the help of the FF, who had just been coerced into the Negative Zone to ally themselves with Blastaar. A Galactus-like threat looms in the background as Blastaar, the Surfer and the FF try to save the Negative Zone.

Friedman's done his homework. He makes several references to specific incidents in the comics and explains them well enough that you don't need to run down to the comic book shop to get the whole story. His characterizations are well-done and the only fault I found is that he occasionally referred to the Human Torch as a teenager. Perez's chapter illustrations are spectacular and proves that he still is one of the greatest comic artists alive.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic read!
Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2000
This, like Countdown To Chaos is a very good read, and a must have for anyone who loves Fantastic Four and stories about the Negative Zone. I also would strongly recommend this for those who are fans of the Silver Surfer for this novel has some of the best characterization ever done on him in any work.

2.0 out of 5 stars FORGET THIS BOOK, It's not worth it.
Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2000
If you like dumb books than this is for you. I have collected comic books and I am an expert in discussing the marvel characters, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to say this book is bad. Sure, this book has an okay plot and the graphics are spectacular, but they cannot make up for the lack of characterization and sub-plots in this book. I give this book two stars out of five. It has an okay plot but is sorely lacking in areas that are vital to a good book.
