The follow ups though suffer from uninteresting characters and plots. I couldn't care less what was going to happen to any of the characters. I stopped caring, and I stopped reading... ( )

Title: A Forest of Stars Series: Saga of the Seven Suns Author: Kevin Anderson Rating: 3 of 5 Stars Genre: SF Pages: 704 Synopsis: Stuff happens and the other ancient alien races appear. One for each element of Air, Water, Fire and Earth. This definitely deserves the title of "Saga", as it is huge in scope. My Thoughts: I enjoyed the beginning, was bored in the middle and enjoyed the ending. Most of my experience with Anderson has been with his Star Wars books and they never impressed me, not at all. This series, the writing is almost like he is enjoying what he is writing and he's trying to do a good job. And it shows. My only problem is/was that this was just too big. Too much is happening and to force it all in, you get some really boring stretches. Overall, a solid read but not something I'll ever re-read or salivate for the next book, unlike Akira. " I started this with a degree of trepidation, almost out of a sense of duty, to continue my way through the series after not particularly enjoying book one. In fact I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it and found myself slightly disappointed that it ended when it did. This isn't soaring Sci-Fi of incredible insight, but is a perfectly good space-based tale with extra bits and pieces thrown in that make it an enjoyable read. I hoping now that book three is another step up, we might yet have a classic on our hands... nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

It has been five years since humanity's heady expansion among the stars came to an abrupt, and violent, halt. The emergence of the Hydrogues, an immensely powerful alien race dwelling within gas-giant planets, has placed the scattered colonies of the Terran Hanseatic League in jeopardy. With space travel heavily curtailed, and supplies of fuel dwindling, young King Peter and Chairman Basil Wenceslas, the harsh power behind the throne, have no choice but to impose strict rationing. But the Hydrogues are not the only enemies of humanity. The scheming Mage-Imperator, leader of the ancient Ildiran Empire, attempts to forge tangled alliances among all combatants in order to protect his failing civilization. The mysterious Klikiss robots, only remnants of an extinct race, continue to work their sinister plans while pretending to be friends and advisors to the Hanseatic League. And archaeologists Margaret and Louis Colicos -- whose discovery of an ancient alien weapon accidentally triggered the Hydrogue conflict -- have vanished on the abandoned world of Rheindic Co. Rlinda Kett and Davlin Lotze, sent to investigate the disappearance, soon realise that the Colicos' discoveries may lead to an incredible new way to travel between worlds... or to the awakening of enemies even more fearsome than the Hydrogues. Something of inestimable power must have been required to destroy the Klikiss race. Will humanity be next? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
