An author worth reading.

A good continuation of the story. Nuttall is an excellent writer and makes his characters believable. I am currently working my way through all of his books and have yet to be disappointed.  His insight into human nature and the nature of humans as a civilization is very well thought out. I could not help but compare the death spiral of the Human Galactic Empire to current world politics.

This author writes in the most interesting manner, unlike any other writer I've read.  You've heard of books that were real "page-turners"?  This is one.  You won't regret buying it.

This is a fine, well paced story told by a good author. His ideas are interesting and his research is clearly strong. The plot move4s well and keeps us interested. I now have read the series and find them each compelling.

I enjoy this author tremendously and was excited to get this novel. I was not disappointed. Always the story is there and interesting but more important for me is the way that I am left wondering about human behaviour and reflecting on my own. A book worth reading.

I know the author personally and owed it to him to read his books.  First, to be a published author is a huge accomplishment and this author's list of accomplishments does not stop at writing.  The characters were believable.  I could form a mental image of most characters which, to me, is the test of how dimensional and believable the characters. I am hardly a prude but I think that the language was a bit over the top. It detracted rather than added to the story.  I would have also liked to see more information on how the situation developed.  Trying not to to create a spoil alert...but more on the "rain."  One of my nit picks is proper use of English.  The editor missed several entries that I caught immediately, so if you are looking for someone to edit, Thom, I'm free!  None of this has a negative impact on the book.  It's a fast, fun read for people who appreciate the genre, myself included.

I like this author. A bit of a slow start and trying to keep the characters straight, but worth sticking with it.

Very good. This author is a scary story teller of what could be. Best to listen to him and read his books, to be better prepared. Some situations mentioned in his books would have never come to my mind if I hadn't read the books. Time well spent.

The author is worthy, we all know that. All his books have been enjoyable. But this book has a profundity to it which I believe is a sign of the author's ever-expanding wisdom (and certain eventual apotheosis). The ending was just magnificent.

This author sure knows how to keep a story going. Her characters are interesting and they mesh well with each other. All her books are worth reading.
