3.0 out of 5 stars
Full of ideas...,
By
This review is from: Galaxys End (Paperback)
but not much else. Characters get moved around, the point of view changing every chapter, the plot unfolding like a flower, thru time and space. It seems like aliens are trying to save the galaxy. Yes, kind of vague, but the ideas that pop up keep you wanting more, even if the ending is neither victory nor defeat. The ideas of Good and Evil, Win or Lose, are not really something most of the aliens or characters seem to use as a scale in the book. Borders between the different threads are fuzzy and survival becomes goal number one.
I enjoyed the first book more - it felt like it was getting someplace. This one is more like a brainstorm - nothing but thoughts chained together. A book made to explore certain questions but not really answer them.

Slightly better than the first.,

This review is from: Galaxys End (Paperback)
I obtained Star's End and Galaxies End at the same time, otherwise I would have stopped after the first book. Galaxies End is a continuation of Star's End, almost like taking a whole book and cutting it. There are many interesting ideas, but the plot and character development were ridiculously weak. I continued on because of some very fascinating ideas, that unfortunately go nowhere. If you like topics to think about, pick up this book. If you are looking for a story with a plot, much less an end or even a stopping point, don't bother with this book.

Big build-up with no punchline,
This review is from: Galaxys End (Paperback)
As a piece of fiction, it showed lots of imagination and wonderful alien characterizations. However, the book was vague, sometimes confusing, made lots of promises...then delivers absolutely NO ENDING! What the heck? If anyone sees the author on the street, punch him in the nose for me.
If there's a third volume to this finish the series, I haven't heard of it. Don't buy the book...don't even waste your time checking it out of the library
