This review is from: Solomon's Song (Paperback)

First, anything by this author is great. My concern with him is he is divorced from a happy ending so I feel emotionally battered after reading his books. Its an experience and there has been growth but its isnt a feel good experience.

This was the last book of a trilogy. The first two books were devastastingly good. This was not as good as the first two. The beginning of this book expounds on the conclusion of the last book beautifully. Book 3 goes into detail on what happened to the characters at the end of book 2.

It wrapped up the the ending of the 2nd book of the trilogy which was extremely thrilling. After the beginning of book 3, the thrilling parts ended. Its not bad, just not as gripping or the pacing of the other novels. Still this is a great author, but of the trilogy, this is the weakest of the 3 books.

Definitely read the book just to find out what on the full extent of what happened after book 2.
