Final Reckoning: The Fate of Bester by Greg Keyes, Greg Keyes, J. Michael Straczynski
4.0
This is the final book in the trilogy about Bester, the Psi Cop from the Babylon 5 TV series. I’ve always been a big fan of the TV show, so I was pleased to discover that books based on the series could be pretty good.
Alfred Bester has become an important figure and leader in the Psi Corps, but changing situations outside the Corps threaten its survival. Bester becomes involved in acts that can be described as war crimes. The Corps is disbanded and Bester is being pursued as a war criminal. He settles down in an Earth city and tries to live his old age without much notice.
Meanwhile, Michael Garibaldi has taken up the manhunt too, determined to get his revenge on Bester at last.
An excellent book that provides a much-needed resolution to the “Whatever happened to Bester and Garibaldi” that the TV show never portrayed.
