Writing Fall and Rise of Galen, the Techno Mage

[PrinceGranger]

So has anyone here ever read or even heard of the three book sereis set in the Babylon 5 universe known as The Passing of the Techno-Mages? The series is by Jeanne Cavelos and of course based on J. Michael Strasinzki's wrold of Babylon 5. I mention the books because they're probably some of my all time favorite. They're meaningful, deep, and exploratory while at the same time entertaining and fun. Plus, no one has ever heard of them, and they really are a diamond in the rough.

Book 1 is Casting Shadows
Book 2 is Summing Light
Book 3 is Invoking Darkness

but, I only need mention the first, never met a person who could only read one ;)


I was not a huge Babylon 5 fan, didn't hate, but was always more a fantasy guy and then dinner outranked babylon 5. Only saw a handful of episodes. Doesn't matter, don't need it for the book. Books stand alone and that's real nice.

When people talk about power houses, like Goku or Superman, I think of Galen.
When people talk about suffering, like religious zealots and the persecuted, I think of Blaylock and Galen.
When people talk about families that aren't families and men that are fathers, I think of Elric and I think of Galen.

Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has ever read these pieces. I love 'em. And if not, then I am here to recommend them.
