Rating: 1 stars
Summary: not a worthy finale
Review: The saga of the Plieocene Exiles was so good that it's almost unfair to compair the rest of May's books against it. However one would like to think that the finale would at least be compatible with the story told in the original series. This book is not. The metapsychic rebellion ends up presented as a minor piece of fluff, relatively inconsequencial compared to all of the build up. It was especially weak compared to the way the rebellion was presented in the original series.May remains a good storyteller, she just ought to keep her story straight.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not a great ending. Rush job?
Review: This book isn't that bad, but it's not great. It's worth getting if you want to finish the Trilogy. But the Trilogy isn't that great in itself.

The Saga of the Exiles was much better than the Milieu Trilogy. The latter seems like the result of a rush job compared to the former. A bit disappointing, knowing what Ms. May was capable of.

Also as someone mentioned, there are many inconsistencies between the two. For one, in the Pliocene Saga the metapsychics were hurling mind bolts spinning illusions fairly easily. Whereas in the Milieu Trilogy, Marc (Mr Powerful himself) in his youth and most of the rest seem to be much weaker (except for farspeech).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome!! A Must Read!
Review: This was the 2nd best series of hers yet. I think that it couldve been slightly better if they would've put more confict into the novel, yet I still think that they kick.I honestly think that the Saga of the Pliocene Epoch was better developed, and I wish that they would make some more novels with Aiken Drumm as main character... BTW, email me any cool info you happy to see on the WEB about any of her books in the INTERVENTION,GALACTIC MILIEAU TRILOGY, and SAGA OF THE PLIOCENE EPOCH.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Please don't let this be all !!!!!!
Review: To tell the truth, I liked Julians books that much that I am quite disappointed if this was it. I would like to hear more about unity and will humanity really lead it into a glorious future, is fury dead, ... ? There r so many open questions, and I hope that some of them will find an answer, so please Madam, do write atleast one more title. And if it is only to help me practise my english. Thanks in anycase for the wonderful books you have written up to now. You r on the same rank as I.Asimov is, and u remind me of him for you give humanity a great future.
