Meh...I found it predictable and the writing itself, the dialogue, a bit too soapy for my taste. And in the end, I really did not care about any of the characters.
While reading it, I kept thinking how much better Justin Cronin's The Passage (and its sequels) are. Now THAT book made me feel the terror and the anguish, the hope and the love. And it made me care.
2 1/2 ☆
3.5 *. Fear Nothing is my first Koontz book. It has some tense, creepy moments and a good protagonist. On the other hand, I'm not itching to read more Koontz.
Brilliant......the whole trilogy has entered my favourite books list. The world building, the writing, the characters are all magnificent.
Now I want to read Jemisin's other works.
Fantastic read, perfect ending to this trilogy. Love the characters, the worlds, the writing......everything!
Definitely my favourite of the series so far....the writing is better, the tension feels more real. And we're left with some intriguing questions I want answered in the next book.
This volume is gut-wrenching and beautiful. I can't wait and yet I'm terrified for the next one.
Beautiful; full of such joy and wonder and heartbreak. The characters and the world and the writing are all superb.
Decent but I think it could be so much better. I found Nova annoying and unsympathetic despite the tragedy she experienced at such a young age. Adrian is a bit too sweet. The ending didn't surprise me. Meh, perhaps the conclusion will be better.
Very good. I found the descriptions of different gravities and their effects on the human body very interesting. And the design of lunar society/culture along with it's physical structures, the sheer difficulty of living and working and building on the moon are all envisioned very well.
Some of the battle scenes are terrifying and I found Luna's journey with Lucasinho very compelling.
Watching Tim's present dire situation juxtaposed with his past happiness with the Tavers family was heartbreaking.
Exciting action, interesting characters and great worldbuilding.....so far, The Great Library series is excellent.
4.5 *
Androids and humans in conflict.....I have a thing for that. Excellent start, gorgeous art and I can't wait to read Volume 2.
Exquisite. I love that despite all the darkness, this book has so much beauty and hope. It is a truly wonderful sequel to “Strange the Dreamer”.
