Well we have finally come to the end of
the Revenger trilogy.
i'll be sad
to see the back of the Ness twins.
The book was a great ending to the
series. I was rushing through the last
half of the book late at night desperate
to find out what happened at the end.
This was a interesting / different
series for me. the first few chapters of
book 1 had a slight YA feel to it, and
some of the pirate like language that
continued through the series just felt
slightly weird and offputting but the rest
of it totally outweighed that one slight
thing.
I loved the wide sweep of their
universe and would love to come back and
explore it later in other maybe stand
alone books.
I really enjoyed this, and would
happily re-read the series. Buy it, you
won't be disappointed.

Alastair Reynolds continues his current form with Bone Silence
Alistair
Reynolds
is
still
by
far
my
favorite
author
and
he
has
continued
his
form,
which
rebooted
with
Revenger,
in
Bone
Silence.
A
friend
once
said
to
me
that
Alistair
Reynolds
struggles
to
know
how
to
write
an
ending
and,
disappointingly,
I
think
this
is
still
true
with
Bone
Silence.
This
trilogy
has
the
constant
unanswered
questions
which
drew
me
into
and
kept
me
hooked
on
the
Revelation
Space
stories.
There
is
a
kind
of
answer
at
the
end
and
a
bit
of
a
twist
which,
if
I’m
honest,
left
me
underwhelmed.
The
answer
lacks
detail
and
explanation
of
the
reasons
and
then
the
Ness
sisters
ride
off
into
the
sunset
and
Reynolds
announces
that
he’s
done
with
the
pair.
That
aside
I
loved
Bone
Silence
and
the
entire
trilogy.
Each
book
is
different
and
describes
different
aspects
of
the
universe
in
which
it
is
set.
The
characters
are
diverse
and
interesting
and
the
story
wide,
far
reaching
and
mostly
unpredictable.
The
sisters'
respect
for
each
other
is
clear
throughout,
but
like
real
siblings
there
are
tensions
and
fights.
There
is
a
lot
more
to
this
universe
and
so
much
scope
for
expansion.
I’d
love
Alistair
Reynolds
to
return
to
it
some
day
and
expand
this
story,
fill
in
some
glossed
over
gaps
and
detail
and
tell
some
of
the
other
stories,
even
if
the
cliched
seafaring
language
did
irritate
me
throughout.
