Glass of Milk posted:I couldn't get through the first book of the Night's Dawn trilogy. Hamilton has a talent for setting and environment and background, but the plot and characters are terrible. He specifically states that the company knows the planet wouldn't be profitable for hundreds of years until it's industrialized, so they colonize Lalonde as an agrarian society. This makes no sense. The author has pretty obviously inserted himself into the character of Calvert, which makes the numerous and descriptive sex scenes that much more creepy. Every young female character is described with a sexual component. It's like some dude writing Internet erotica decided to write a novel during those sections of the book. That conversation would have had me running to the store, it's every bit as confectionery and pulp as it sounds, I loved every minute of it.
