The Last Days of Krypton by Kevin J. Anderson

I have never read a book by Kevin J. Anderson before even though he is a best selling science fiction writer. He has co-authored Dune prequels with Brian Herbert, written numerous Star Wars novels and had great success with his own series titled The Saga of the Seven Suns. Being a fan of Superman, I just had to pick up The Last Days of Krypton when I saw the paperback at the local newstand.

Anderson puts his spin of the final fate of Superman's homeworld. Events such as the meeting of Jor-El and Lara, the discovery of the Phantom Zone, the theft of Kandor by Brainac and the reign of Zod are included. At 467 pages, the science fiction book is fast paced and is a must read for any Man of Steel fan. I give The Last Days of Krypton by Kevin J. Anderson an A+.
