Lord of Thunder Beast Master Chronicles Book 2 (Audible Audio Edition) Andre Norton Richard J Brewer Brilliance Audio Books Reviews


"The Lord of Thunder" (1962) by Andre Norton (1912-2005) is a sequel to her novel "The Beast Hunter" (1959). Interested readers may ask is it absolutely necessary that I read "Beast Hunter" before "Lord of Thunder"? If you can you should. "Beast Hunters" provided a substantial amount of background information concerning the central characters that play important roles in "Lord of Thunder". Is it absolute necessary? - no, but it would be very helpful nonetheless.

In "The Beast Hunter" the readers become acquainted with Hosteen Storm a Navajo Indian and cashiered veteran of an interstellar war and his exploits on the planet Arzor dealing with enemy aliens, exploring an ancient civilization and befriending the humanoid intelligent natives called the Norbies.

Most of the story in "Lord of Thunder" concerns a quest to find a missing person and then a crazed earthman through seemingly endless underground caverns full of mysterious artifacts, flashing lights and humming machines. Whenever Hosteen Storm appears to be trapped and about to face his demise a friend, native, constable or one of his trained beast shows up to rescue him and keep the plot moving.

I am a great admirer of Andre Norton books but I was disappointed with "Lord of Thunder". The narrative appeared to be forced, paragraphs were greatly extended with generic descriptions of traveling throught gloomy caves adding little to the story and, honestly, I found myself skimming down pages - something I have never done before reading a story by Ms Norton. "Lord of Thunder" while utilizing the same characters adds very little to the fascinating story of Arzor it's history or it's peoples. Fans should certainly read this book. Casual readers should read "The Beast Hunter" and skip this title.
Lord of Thunder is the sequel to Andre Norton’s The Beast Master. It is the much easier book of the two to find, but it is also the much weaker book. Which isn’t to say that it is bad. It is to say that if you want to read the first book—and you should—go ahead and pick up the omnibus version.

Lord of Thunder sees Hosteen Storm on a new adventure on the wild Arzor. I didn’t find the adventure quite as satisfying. More importantly, Lord of Thunder lacks the thematic weight—the feelz, for you kids out there—of The Beast Master.

Lord of Thunder opens with Hosteen Storm ranching his own land, settled in as a member of the rancher community and as a part of his new, adopted household. The first sign that the peace is not to last is news that the Norbies are heading en masse into uncharted territories where it is taboo for man to tread. During the Big Dry. Norbies don’t commit what might amount to mass suicide lightly. That, of course, has the ranchers on edge. More fuel is added to the fire when a very rich man arrives from off-world to look for his son, whose starship may have crash landed deep in the forbidden zone of Arzor. And he wants Storm to guide him out there, whether Storm likes it or not.

As I alluded to above, Lord of Thunder doesn’t really build on the emotional weight of Storm’s backstory and impetus for choosing Arzor post-service. Norton was somewhat limited in what she could do after the big reveal at the end of the first book, but she didn’t do as much here as she could have. That tied the story of The Beast Master together, giving it thematic weight and making it more than just a good adventure story.

And the adventure story in Lord of Thunder isn’t quite as good. In particular, I was disappointed in the absence of Storm’s team for much of the story. His meerkat (now with a litter of pups) doesn’t accompany him at all. He loses track of the big cat Surra and the eagle Baku for a very long stretch of the book. As a science fiction book, Lord of Thunder might be better than The Beast Master, but I’m not much of a science fiction fan, and that has never been the strength of these books.
excellent book as always!!!!!
But I didn't care for the reader. It takes place on a frontier world somewhere in space, but I didn't buy it to read something that sounds like a western novel.
Great service, and an excellent tale.
