As usual, from Alastair Reynolds, some great ideas. However I thought the ending was a bit confused, with several unresolved questions. I can't say what they are without spoilers.

Long, complex, and grim. You will need stamina to get through all the alliances, betrayals, plotting, and chicanery.

A few times I had to stop and review who was currently on whose side (and if they were still alive!)

A great stormy read.

3.5

Probably 3.5. Took me a while to get into the story.

One of the best book series that I have read for a long time. Highly recommended.
