Borderlands #2: Unconquered Mass Market Paperback – September 25, 2012

All in all, a FANTASTIC read. If Im right, I think this takes place after Borderlands 1 and before 2. This book gives a great feeling of just how visceral Pandora is. From ripping out hearts to drowning an enemy in a puddle of waste- this book definitely tells a different story of the world than the toned down version the games had. The new main characters- Daphne and Gynella are more than worthy of the universe. If you thought Jack was a cruel guy, Gynella is right there with him, maybe even colder. As for Daphne, I personally wish she got more focus time. Her backstory is so rich she deserves her own book, but they tell deep background on both and do a good job of explaining why they each came to Pandora. The prologue and epilogue are a bit cheesy but they were done purely as fan service, other than that the book is perfect. Even if you havent read The Fallen, this book is a standalone title- you wont miss out on anything but a few (2-3) vague references; It also works well as an intro to the Universe, even if you havent played the games.

John Shirley is back to Pandora. This is another book of BOrderlands featuring an all star cast of Roland, Marcus, and the usuall suspects. With a side of psychos, nutcases and various inbread loonies. A good distraction from life.

I was kinda surprised at this book, usually books based on games or movies never really live up to expectation. This book has a decent story mixed with a lot of violence filled action and a lot of humor. I've noticed there are a lot of books on kindle based on the borderland franchise, and I will be reading more of them. I would recommend this book to action fans who like over the top action, but don't expect a hard drama. This book doesn't take itself to seriously, but does manage to be entertaining. 4 stars for having a good enough story, while still being fun! Thank you T.C. McDonald

Of the three novels this one is the best, I think. It has the most iconic players in the game and just everything that you see in the games. The dialogue is hysterical.

I chose this rating because I have played and finished both Borderlands 1 and 2 both of witch were good and the book gives a different story line however still good.What I did not like about it is that there is to many introductions of characters off the start.I would not recommend this book for children under 13

I've read both the first book in the series and this book (#2). I've enjoyed both, they are true to the game right down to how rugged the landscape is and the denizens of the populous. I can not what till the third installment comes out. Super read.

Love it the thrill of my favorite game being in the form of a novel is awesome. Super super cool.
