Title: Two stars are generous
Review: The first of the trilogy was OK, it wasn't great but it worth reading. You can't say that about the second though. The technical aspects again are good, however the story is poor. Science Fiction writers can sometime forget that what makes a story is the relationships between the characters not the special effects. The author has has neglected the characters, so failing to capture any emotional attachment to the book. If you are really interested give it a go, but be warned it is hard work, and not much fun.
