Man, what the fuck, man?
I liked Scar the best. I enjoyed a lot of aspects of PSS and Iron Council, but IC in particular didn't gel with me.

His worldbuilding is definitely the best part of his books, especially the different races.

Also, maybe I'm dense but I never understood how the train in IC was supposed to move. My impression was everyone had to keep on laying track in front of the train, presumably picking it up from behind. How could the thing ever move faster than people (even FANTASY people) can pick up the track from behind and move it to the front? I very well could have completely missed an obvious piece of the book, but that wouldn't stop bugging me. Also it seems like the evil forces just needed to put a bunch of pennies on the existing rails to completely gently caress up everything.
