This long complex novel is the follow up to The Dreaming Void, another long complex novel which I reviewed a few months ago. It took me several chapters to get back into the story and start remembering the characters. Readers might be advised to revisit book one before tackling book two if they have...

A vast, all-you-can-eat, SF buffet. Probably off-puttingly long for those trying to cram in 250 books in a year and whether or not the story actually needs an entire chapter on the evolution of the Ly-cilph is open for debate but for those of us happy to sud ourselves in a highly readable SF saga th...

Series: Commonwealth Saga #2 It's finally over. The ending wasn't even all that interesting; stuff just happened and then things finally ended.

Series: Commonwealth Saga #1 It is finally over! Alright, I probably shouldn't sound so relieved when I've already started listening to its sequel, which is even longer. This book is flawed in several ways but I still found it interesting and want to see where we go in the sequel. Basically, t...

What I wanted to be a fun space opera romp was marred by genocidal aliens and an authoritarian government. I've got that at home.

Probably the best novel from Hamilton since Fallen Dragon. Much less padding, fewer viewpoint characters, no obviously, horribly wrong science.

This is a big sweeping epic scifi! There’s a lot going on in this story. Set in the far, far future, there’s an intersolar commonwealth with all sorts of politics. At the center of the galaxy, is the Void, which is supposedly this artificial universe created by a technologically advanced civilizati...

I so enjoyed the first book in the series. This was a real let-down. None of the twists and turns of the first novel. The good guys had too much power and were never in any real danger. A very ordinary villain who's only caught because he loses his nerve and forces a showdown. The obvious suspe...
