Mass Effect: Deception (the new Novel)

Recommended Posts

Mass Effect: Deception is the latest, fourth part of the series.

Written by William C. Dietz, and not the original author of the other 3 novels.

 

I could write long segments about it to describe what it is supposed to be about, but it's easier if I just say,

the only "Deception" in the book is trying to sell it as a solid, worthwhile addition to the ME franchise.

It's not.

This thread from Bioware Social Network is 60+ pages describing all possible things with quotations and facts from the book that are just plain wrong about it.

 

A great example is how Kai Leng, supposedly a top-tier Cerberus agent and an important antagonist of the book, breaks into the house of the protagonist, and as "he is an adrenaline junkie", he eats a bowl of cereal.

I'm not kidding.

 

So in case you were cheering for the book, don't.

 

Mass Effect 3 will hopefully bury the holes this novel has unearthed, but that is merely in the future to come.

I figured I'd sway people away from it before it mocks the ME universe and not just itself. :P
