I really enjoyed how Mengsk was shown in this book. View 1 comment. Sep 10, Dino rated it really liked it. First of all, i'd question my objectivity on any book that's related to StarCraft, simply because i consider myself to be a HUGE fan of the series and the story.
Bearing that in mind, this is my opinion on the book. As i've noticed with the StarCraft books i've read so far i haven't read all of them yet, but i plan on doing so , it starts off slow and builds up to being pretty good in my opinion and to my taste. Apart from the slow start, i feel that it gives a good amount of background story First of all, i'd question my objectivity on any book that's related to StarCraft, simply because i consider myself to be a HUGE fan of the series and the story.
Apart from the slow start, i feel that it gives a good amount of background story to fill out that "void" that the game has left in many peoples heads. Uprising is a prequel to the StarCraft game and tells the story of Kerrigan and Mengsk, giving us some knowledge to why Kerrigan acted the way she did during the Terran campaign in StarCraft and also how the Zerg came to be in the Terran system. I found to book interesting, easy to read and overall enjoyable.
Jul 20, Phillip Wyrick rated it really liked it. A good novel for fans. Fast paced and a real page turner. Gives some good background for Mengsk, Kerrigan, and the start of the Sons of Korhals. The length is pretty short though. Feb 26, Costin Manda rated it did not like it Shelves: owned. I really enjoyed the Warcraft and Starcraft ministories in the game and I was happy to hear that books have been written that take place in those parallel worlds.
One of these is Starcraft Uprising. I am disapointed to say that the book sucks. It is like a fast forward screenwrite test, with ideas that are both boring and badly conceived. The entire book can be read online, but I've lost the link, but I tell you this: it is not worth it. And the action takes place just after humans discover the Z I really enjoyed the Warcraft and Starcraft ministories in the game and I was happy to hear that books have been written that take place in those parallel worlds.
And the action takes place just after humans discover the Zerg, but have no idea what they are, a prequel to the Starcraft storyline. May 04, Chris Peters rated it liked it. Uprising is a nice, short, and decent backstory for both Kerrigan and the Sons of Korhal. Nothing groundbreaking, but recommended if you want some Starcraft lore. Oct 16, Sierra rated it liked it. It was good, It adds more to when and how the Confederate connected with the Zerg.
Was interesting to read about ghost and Sarah's own connection, but otherwise meh. Good but probably won't go out of my way to read again. Dec 07, Frank Caron rated it it was ok.

Main character Octavia Bren and her brother Lars safely survive the storm and go out to investigate the aftermath the next day. They find an ancient artifact protruding out of the mountainside. They investigate deeper. Lars is killed by the artifact and a strange signal is sent by the artifact into space.
Octavia runs back to the colony and warns th My book, "Shadow of the Xel'Naga" is a science fiction novel written by Gabriel Mesta. Octavia runs back to the colony and warns them. They send for help. Having heard the signal, the alien races, the Protoss and the Zerg, make their way to the planet to claim the artifact for their own. The Terran humans receive the message sent by the colonist and come to help. All these armies and races arrive at the planet around the same time and a humongous blood bath begins.
Each race is fighting for the artifact. However, this is what the artifact wants. The Protoss, Terran, and Zerg all send squads inside the artifact to race to the center. All beings in the center are consumed by the artifact including the humans even though the humans were not wanted.
The artifact awakens. A creature hatches from the temple, which was an egg. The creature absorbs all beings in the field of war while Octavia watches from a safe distance. Creature leaves into space, while returning all the humans it consumed to the ground. A protoss named Xerana chases after the creature. Lars was gone. This is because Octavia is realizing the loss of her brother and mourns his death greatly.
She is motivated by his loss to warn the colony and save everybody from the same fate. I think this was a pretty good book. I enjoyed reading it, even though some of the story seemed a little "out there" and actually did not really explain the storyline of the game.
It was still a good story and a good book. View 1 comment. Oct 31, Sean Hall rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: Science fiction fans. The book, Liberty's Crusade is science fiction novel based on the popular video game of StarCraft. It starts out on the planet Tarsonis where the main character, Michael Libery, is given a job to be a reporter for the Confederate Marines and roam in space with them. He travels with the Marines uncovering answers to questions of what the Confeds were hiding.
The fact that they are in war against alien races that have grown too powerful to defeat. My favorite line from this book is "Kerrigan 1. My favorite line from this book is "Kerrigan snapped off a quick salute. You Pig! Raynor lurched backward as if struck. Raynor was thinking "naughty" thoughts about Kerrigan and didn't even have to say them aloud.
Kerrigan is telepathic and can read thoughts. Kerrigan and Raynor later fall in love. I really liked this book. It has a lot to it that I think makes a good book, action, mystery, and adventure.
Love it. Aug 17, Syaiful Bakhtiar rated it it was amazing. I have to say that this book totally opens my mind to the universe that is starcraft.
