Summary: OK, I'm hooked
Review: When I read the first book of the series, I thought that the characters were weak, the plot was to thin and drawn out and morality had nothing to do with anything in it (may be just me, but I think morality is important). The only reason I even read the second was that someone loaned me his copy. Now, I can't wait for the continuation of the series. The characters have gained depth, the story has me riveted, all the actions of the past come back to haunt the cast. The whole "bad is bad" thing is dying too. It seems quite a few of the dead are only there from a need, not a desire to be evil. Overall, if you can make it through the first book, this is one of the best sci-fi/fantasy (its both) books you'll ever read

Summary: Next book in the trilogy is called "A second chance at Eden"
Review: I loved both The Reality Function and The Neutronium Alchemist. I've read the british editions, where The Reality Dysfunction and the Neutronium Alchemist are both one novel (1000 pages hard cover or 1200+ pages paperback each!!).The characters are well developed and not just hate em/love em stereotypes as are common these days in adventure/action SF (most commonly seen in filmed SF). The story moves at a breakneck pace and keeps you guessing every step of the way. The ideas and technology introduced in each book are incredible. Mr Hamilton is well on his way to becoming one of the premier writers of SF of our decade. I can't wait for the next installment called "A second chance at Eden". The british hardcover edition is scheduled to be published in October 1998. The paperback is scheduled for May 1999. (this according to a british internet bookstore). I almost can't wait till October

Summary: I'd give it 6 stars if I could!
Review: I've been reading science fiction for over 35 years. During that time, few authors have succeeded in grabbing my attention through multiple books the way this series has. Larry Niven Known Space, Gordon Dickenson's Dorsai, Issac Asimov's Robots, and now Hamilton's "Adam and Eden" stories. Peter Hamilton has the ability to "flesh out" a large number of major characters, and weave divergent storylines in such a way that you can really empathize with the characters(even the bad guys), and never loose interest. I only have one complaint-I have to wait until NEXT YEAR for the conclusion!

Summary: A SCI FI NOVEL OF EPIC PROPORTIONS
Review: An Epic adventure that disgourges you from page one and then twists and turns you into oblivion. Bustling with believable Characters, Morbid antagonism, and space wise genius of a calibre not unlike the fore fathers of sci fi before him. Who needs Drugs !! When you flip the first page your hooked, when you get to the finalli, withdrawl symptoms set in and you long for your next hit. Definatly a must read

Summary: cogito ergo "the night's dawn trilogy"
Review: Don't begin to read this trilogy if you plan to... sleep enough next nights ... keep track with your business schedule ... celebrate your wedding-day... YOU MIGHT GET INTO BIG TROUBLES !!! A page-turner for lazy afternoons on the beach, a must have for rainy days, you even might forget smoking... SF in its most trivial way...but isn't life just trivial ? Hamilton has a unique ability to glue the readers to the storyline... Did you like Clarke, Farmer, the Perry Rhodan saga, Asimov, Dick, Heinlein, et alia ? ...thats where Hamilton is definitely aiming at... watch out for the third part of the trilogy... I almost can't wait...

Summary: Way too drawn-out; The series should have been one book!
Review: Peter Hamilton would have written a great book if his entire saga would start and end in one book. As it is, the majority of things are just a rehash of one of the previous books. Skip this one!
Rating: 
Summary: The saga continues.
Review: A little slower than the previous novels. The last 30 pages just fly by. Hamilton sure knows how to make you sit on the edge of your seat. I can't wait to find out what happens.

Summary: Best Sci-Fi Opera since Timothy Zahn's Star Wars series!
Review: What a fantastic series. The scope of the imaginery worlds of the Confederation is breathtaking-you almost feel like you are reading a documentary on the period, not a work of fiction. The characters are so tangible, you feel intimately familiar with them-and what is so compelling about them is how realistic their emotional responses are to their comparitive situations. I had purchased the 4th book in the series 2 months ago, but just recently started reading it. If I have to wait till 1999 to read the final installment of the series(The Naked God), then by george, I am going to prolong this delectable reading as long as I can!!

Summary: Best Epic Science Fiction that I have Read!
Review: The story that Peter F. Hamilton has crafted is amazing in its complexity and detail. He creates a world that is as life-like as the world I see outside my window. His story's use of theology as a major plot factor is also fresh and inviting. The use of a plentora of characters to tell the story from different points of view is also very effective. The only drawback is an occassional experience of sensory overload as Hamilton provides so much sensory detail the reader is overwhelmed.

Summary: Excellent work- you MUST read this series!
Review: Mr. Hamilton has reminded me of how great science fiction can be when it's done by a master. The technologies he brings to life so casually (bitek, neural nanonics, affinity, combat boosted mercs, zero tau, much more...) amazing! I'm waiting for the "Naked God" to complete this wonderful reading experience. (Maybe an early release Mr. Hamilton?)
