Reunion


A Del Rey Book

Copyright 2001 by Thranx, Inc.



In REUNION, a Pip and Flinx novel by Alan Dean Foster, Flinx and his minidrag Pip continue to search for Flinx's origins and about the Meliorare Society which had created Flinx and his mental powers. After breaking into a top secret industrial facility on Earth, Flinx discovers that the information that he needs was already stolen and taken off of Earth. Flinx then follows the file into dangerous AAnn space.

As an adult, Flinx is more driven than ever in finding about his origins. He does not care about who he uses with his special powers in order to get what he wants, including a woman who had cared about Flinx and she winds up being mentally persuaded into helping him. As a result, Flinx is not as sympathetic to me as he used to be when he was a kid. Even when Flinx is stranded on an AAnn planet, I could not sympathize with his predicament as much as when he was a vulnerable innocent kid. Even when Flinx runs across a long lost family member, the situation is not as traumatic as it could have been as I did not care as much for Flinx.
