Title: Appalling Nonsense Wasting The Work Of The First Two Authors
Review: no, it's not Asimov: but while Benford's first novel ('Fear') was a first rate piece of writing, offering fascinating characters and possibilities the other two other authors have virtually ignored what was given them: at least Bear tried to do something with the offerings in the second volume 'Chaos' and told a worthwhile story and created a fascinating possibility with a new character: but Brin throws it all away ('Triumph') in a nonsensical poorly constructed space opera, ignoring the other characters and creating very poor one dimensional ones of his own5 stars for Benfordthree stars for Bearand a measly half a star for Brin
