Deus Ex: Black Light (Book Review)


Titan Books has released Deus Ex: Black Light for $7.99.



Book Synopsis:

A brand-new prequel novel set in the renowned world of Deus Ex, bridging the events between Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

The year is 2029, and the shining promise of a new age of human augmentation is in ruins in the wake of the devastating ‘Aug Incident’ – a horrific catastrophe triggered by a cabal of shadowy power brokers, where millions of cybernetically-enhanced people suffered a forced psychotic break.

Awakening in the aftermath of a changed world, with gaps in his memories and suspicion on all sides, augmented ex-cop and former security operative Adam Jensen struggles to piece his life back together, in a new reality where ‘Augs’ have become the targets of hatred, fear and violent discrimination.

Now the dark forces behind the Incident are gathering once again, reaching out to manipulate the course of global events through terror and intimidation. To find the answers that he seeks and the people who destroyed everything he knew, Jensen must return to the ashes of the past, reconnect with old allies, and risk all to expose a deadly conspiracy – but in a world shattered by secrets, can the truth be brought into the light?

Deus Ex: Black Light released on August 23rd and is the pre-sequel to Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. If you are a gamer and want to delve deeper into the world of Deus Ex with the new game release, then Deus: Ex Black Light allows you to do that.

Author James Swallow does a fantastic job of crafting a world that takes readers into Facility 451 and into the new age of human augmentation. The year 2029 is full of terror and secrets and Deus Ex: Black Light helps bridge the gap between Deus Ex: Human Revolution and the new game Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

In the end, Deus Ex: Black Light was a fantastic read and really helps you understand the world of Deus Ex before jumping into Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. If you haven't played the game yet or just a diehard fan, then Deus Ex: Black Light is worth picking up.
