Thanks for the link and info!
I haven't read the first two books. I think Hamilton may have lost me with Judas Unchained. I liked The Reality Dysfunction a lot, and enjoyed the rest of the Night's Dawn trilogy, but after that the other books I read from him didn't feel as good, and the last two (that I read) were too much for me I think.
I even took the time to write a real review on LibraryThing about them, for a change
