Reception
[edit | edit source]In a review of Shrapnel in Black Gate, John ONeill said "The BattleTech universe, with its widely diverse warring human factions scattered across the galaxy, is one of the most richly detailed fictional creations in science fiction, and it’s a delight to revisit it, and see such a creative group of individuals bringing it to life again."[5]
