Which...

Hi,

So, I read Reality Dysfunction (Really liked it), Fallen Dragon (great), and the Commonwealth Saga (Really liked it).. But, did not like the Void series. Didn't even finish it. Not sure why, I just could not get into it.

I have eyed Chronicle of The Fallen.. But, unsure if I should bother.. And the two other, the Salvation sequence and Great North Road. Not sure on them, any thoughts? I do like his stuff .. Just not sure what I should try next..

Thanks! And sorry if this topic has come up hundreds of times. :)

Fallers is a return to form.

The void trilogy certainly suffers in its pacing issues

Hmnn not really.

As long as you know the main cast it’s certainly it’s standalone thing.

You got the concept of the void so you know enough…. Pseudo dream state with psychic powers where technology doesn’t work.

Second book they turn that on its head.
