I've been tripping down nostalgia lane lately thanks to ebay. Anyone else remember this duology? I remember the villain was one of the most realistic bad guys I had ever read. At least that's what my teen self thought. I'm hoping to re-read these and see if they hold up to the perspective of my adult self. I really loved these back in the day. So much so I was hoping he would write more in that realm. He didn't.
