I finally finished this book and series tonight! Woo Hoo! I started reading the first book in the trilogy on November 30th 2014 so it has almost been 6 months to the day. I did love the book but series fatigue was lingering around the corner. I have no idea how anyone can read those 10 book sets from various authors no matter how good they are. I feel this last book provided a fitting end to the Void trilogy. Multiple story lines came together and reached mostly satisfactory conclusions. Now this is a Peter F. Hamilton book, the man does not know how to write a short novel. If you know that going in and can appreciate it (or at least go through phases when you can appreciate it) then you will enjoy the trilogy. This one had less of the fantasy elements than the second one which was a big plus for me. And man is this science fiction. We are talking galaxy spanning, massive spaceships, star destroying black hole hurling sci-fi with the multi-dimensional and complex characters that one can expect from a top notch book. Oh! And we do learn much more about the void and why so many want to go there, and we learn more about its' secrets too.... As a side note, these British authors are a blessing to folks like me who like rich and exciting science fiction. It seems that these days the American authors (scalzi for instance) write fairly shallow books that they attempt to imprint their weak politics in while using the same snarky and sarcastic character type over and over and over... Anyway, I am glad to have found Hamilton, Reynolds etc and have really enjoyed the trip. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

And there are buts. This 3 volume series is 50% too long. Although his descriptive prose is incredibly vivid and rich, there is just too much of it, too much of it is superfluous. And whilst it seem bizarre saying it, it is all rather fantastical. Finally, the ending, the wrap-up is, in sharp contrast to what came before, hurried and lacking information. It almost seems as though he wasn't sure how to finish the series. To be frank it was rather disappointing.
All very impressive, but I spent too much time on this series. Sometimes less is more. ( )
