review 1: Fully deserving of five stars as culmination to the series so far. This is one of those rare series which transcends the scifi arena into a character driven emotional roller coaster. In many ways this book left me outraged on behalf of the main protagonist, that shows how good and how drawn into the series I had become. The fact that the way the main character had been left by the author elicited these effect from me shows how good the writing was.Yes the series has been patchy, the editing some what iffy in places however none of that matters when you are that deep into the story.Can't recommend this series highly enough.
review 2: I'm about 70% done and this is the worst Spinward Fringe novel. In the movie "Wonderboys" Katie Holmes tells Michael Douglas that... more authors have to make choices when writing and his novel is huge because he won't make choices. Mr. Lalonde appears to be trying to undue choices he's made in past novels and trying to reboot the series down a different path. It's like he's dumping every potential plot idea into a single volume. This combined with the inability to keep characters ranks straight, and the unnecessary recapitulation of past events has made this the most unfun Spinward Fringe novel to date. Hopefully the last 30% will redeem it but it is on track to be a 2 star rating.The action in the last part of the book was not able to redeem it. I hate to do it but 2 stars it is. less
