I'm not willing to slog through several hundred pages of apparently unrelated story development for a series that apparently begins to have some action in the second book. I made it to page 200 and gave up in disgust. If you're willing to invest a great deal of time and effort, you might like this better, but I found it dull, un-engaging, and completely lacking in any coherent narrative.

What a great start to a series! Good development of a unique sci-fi universe. The story starts with several seemingly unrelated characters/scenarios but brings them together and the action leaves you wanting more, more, more.

You have to think of the Night's Dawn Trilogy, not as a trilogy, but as ONE book divided into three books (which are further divided into two parts each, to make it easier to hold the darn book while reading!). If you don't read them in order: YOU WILL BE TOTALLY LOST!! It really is one big long story arch, and it's not written so that you can just pick it up anywhere and be able to follow. Why would you want to do that anyway?! I've read some amazing scifi, and I have to say that Hamilton really is up there with Azimov and Brin. If you love them, you'll love Hamilton!

An excellent and exciting read. Three story arcs, each of which are very fun to read on their own, come together at the climax of this book, to release an incredible evil upon the universe. Beware: this is only the first part of a 2 part series! I wanted closure and of course got none - my own fault of course. I've just ordered the second book, as the story is very addicting.
