My new favorite series

I too, was instantly hooked on this series. The story moves at a great pace and keeps you on the edge of your seat. There were many nights I lost hours of sleep because I could not possibly put the story down. The characters are very complex and believable personalities set in a fantastic universe. The depth of the various factions that play with and against each other is vast. The setting that Dix and Williams have created is so rich that even upon completing the trilogy, I am left wanting to know more about their universe and those within it. The characters are vivid and easy to love. The science of their world is distributed evenly throughout the story so that you understand the mechanics without it getting in the way of the story. The action is non-stop and addictive and the plot takes turns that you simply don't see coming and yet leaves you feeling as if you should have, right up to the ending. I personally loved this series including the ending and placed it among my all time favorites. I hope to see many more from these very talented writers. I think everyone should email the Sci-Fi channel and ask to see this in a sci-fi channel series!

and so it begins...

This was where it all began. I was hooked right from the start and I never looked back. After reading this one I went straight on to the second and third books, and loved the entire series. But this was the one that set the mood for the following saga. I had forgotten how good sci fi could be. And it wasn't just a boy's own adventure either. The central character is a female and a damn strong female too. I couldn't help thinking as I read this how good the story would be made into a movie and having read the following 2 books in the series I have to say the whole thing should be turned into a trilogy of films! This could be the next Star Wars! Maybe this type of reaing isn't for everyone but if you do like sci fi space opera as much as I do then I recommend these books. Utterly satisfying from beginning to end.

Prodigal Sun -- The Start Of A Awesome Space Opera

After reading this book, my first thought was, "When is the next book coming out?" Prodigal Sun is a unique space opera, with many charactes, a complex society, and a universe where you don't know who is on your side, or who to trust. Your friend may be you enemy, and your enemy just may turn out to be your friend. The story exemplifies the addage, "Politics makes strange bedfellows." I found the character of Morgan Roche to be as engaging at Ellen Ripley character from Alien. A strong enduring woman, who is an unwitting pawn in a grand scheme where the reader is unsure as to who is pulling the strings. The culture is portrayed in a richtapestry, where humanity exist in genetically modified caste system. I recommed this book for anyone looking to get involved in a space opera of a grand scale. Only downfall is that once you finish Emgerence, you're going to have to wait for the next book in the series to come out.

Evergence-The Prodigal Sun

This was the first science fiction book i read. I'm hooked. I can't wait for the next in the series to come out. First of all someone wrote about that this book would be hard to understand for a kid,I understood it and I am 15. Maybe i liked it so much because it was the first SF novel i read, but i think it is a great book. Morgan Roche is a commander for the CommonWealth of Empires. Her mission is to transport the Artifial Intelligence box known as "Box" to her superiors. She meets up with an unknow soldier, Adoni Cane. On the way her transport ship "Midnight" is ambushed by the Dato Bloc, an empire that has just succeeded the COE. Her only hope is to excape to the prison planet "Sciacca's world." Sean Williams and Shane Dix did a good job creating their own little world in this novel. I look forward to reading the rest in this series as they come out. Five Stars

An imaginative Action/Adventure

Set in the far future when humanity has fragmented into innumerable different species who fill the galaxy. This novel has the imagination and complexity of, "A Fire Upon the Deep" by Vernor Vinge, with the action of a David Drake novel. This is the first in a series I'm really looking forward to reading. This is good Science Fiction.
