This book sealed the deal for me - I'm officially a Kerry Nietz fangirl. When I was first introduced to A Star Curiously Singing for the 2010 INSPY awards I was .. concerned. I'd never been a big science fiction (hard core sci-fi that is) fan, but I gave it a chance and was thoroughly hooked by this original, fantastic story.
Then came The Superlative Stream, and once again I was dragged into HardCandy, DarkTrench, and Sandfly's world. And once again, I had to face disappointment and the book cam...more

On the title page written in pen I see "Jacob, one of the things I've enjoyed with these novels is being able to include real science in them. Freeheads probably has the most of the lot, but it also has some of the coolest spec stuff I could think of. Hope you agree. Kerry Nietz."
Yes, Kerry I do agree. Freeheads is by far the best book in the series. It is easy to see his maturity as a writer from book 1 to book 3. I really enjoyed this series. Freeheads is an appropriate finale to the Dark Tren...more

In this last installment of the DarkTrench Saga, Sandfly finds himself back among the society he left 3 weeks ago. However, due to espionage by the Beetle society, he and HardCandy are now on an Earth where almost 40 years have passed, and where life as they once knew it has long gone.
Mostly, it is divided into two worlds: once where the outcasts live, and try to overtake the ruling class, and the ruling class, where the grand leader is actually a teacher of implants who rules his subjects with...more

I'm always wary of sequels to books I love as much as the first two in the Dark Trench saga, afraid I'm going to be let down after expecting so much. But I was not let down. Neitz continues with complete mastery of the first person point of view. Everything is filtered through the main character, Sandfly, and not once did I ever feel pulled out of his head.
The voice of these novels is actually enough to carry me through, but it doesn't have to on its own--all the other elements are strong as wel...more

When I got this book to read, I didn’t realize it was actually the last book in a trilogy. The author did a great job of filling in enough detail that I never felt lost or had a hard time picking up with the story. I do, however, recommend reading the books in order since that’s how the author intended the story to be told.
But WOW! What can I say? I read a lot. I find a lot of books I enjoy, and I’m not stingy with my five star reviews, but books like this make me consider that maybe I need to...more
