When the Winchesters hear rumors of strange occurrences in South Dakota, they show up and find Don, an obnoxious Hawaiian shirt wearing angel, who has lured them. Don wants Dean and Sam to find one of the Dead Sea Scrolls that is going up for auction, then sends them to where the auction is about to happen- the Waldorf in NYC, 1954. Dean and Sam not only have to find the scroll, but fend off demons, including one of Satan's wives. And Dean finds a smart and pretty girl who seems to be as good a con artist as he is. ( )

Title: War of the Sons Series: Supernatural Author: David Reed & Rebecca Dessertine Rating: 2.5 of 5 Stars Genre: Media tie-in Pages: 238 Synopsis: Sam and Dean are played by Abaddon, sent into the past and used to try to wipe out some End Game Strategy God had setup to defeat Satan in the final battle. My Thoughts: Poorly done and poorly thought out, even for a Supernatural event. Anyone who reads ANY Biblical text knows Abaddon is a badguy, period. Stupid Winchesters. A list of bloodlines outlining who the vessels of the angels will be in the last battle is the Big Secret? That is not a strategy, that is a weakness to hide. It is NOT a prophecy that deserves to be in a "War Scroll". Unless you're a writer with no ideas to work with. Then the girl from the past ends up dying alone and old in a rest home? She was a hunter through and through. She wouldn't have lived to BE old. It was mawkish, sentimental and shallow. Not sure how many more of these books there are, but I'm done with them. It just isn't worth the time to read them. " ( )

This book is written so poorly that I was able to get half-way through only by pushing myself. I won't be able to finish it. The plot meanders, the characters are untrue to the TV show (which I like very much) both in personality and in speech, and the writing is simply dreadful. The publishers, who I assume have money invested in having the right to produce show-related merchandise, would be much better off finding a good fanfiction-writer -- and there are many who are very good -- or having one of their own assistant editors rewrite some of the actual screenplays in book form. For fans of the show who want something in book form, I suggest the trade comic books; they are true to the show and add to the story and characters. ( )
