At All Costs (Honor Harrington, Book 11) Image
At All Costs (Honor Harrington, Book 11) (Science Fiction) 100(1)
Published by Baen on September 25, 2007
First Published by Baen in 2005
  
Fantasy Book Critic Review Rating: 100
while At All Costs is still a Weberian novel with clear definite sides, it manages also to be a darkly ambiguous one and that was one of the main reasons I consider it the best novel of the series and a top five sf novel of the 00's.

Published by Gollancz on January 01, 2010
  
Fantasy Book Critic Review Rating: 60
Absorption while engaging and readable to the end, turned out to be mostly promise than actual delivery for two reasons, one structural and one a matter of personal preference.

...while the twists and turns are mostly predictable once you get in the flow of the novel, but "Shadow's Son" is written so well that nothing else really mattered for me.

Fantasy Book Critic Review Rating: 80
...has a rich and diverse content, from romance, including as befits the new weird sub-genre, one of the strangest such, to intrigue, mysteries and of course brutal battles since the title is apt for sure.

Lex Trent Versus the Gods (Young Adult Fantasy) 80(2)
Published by Headline Book Publishing on February 04, 2010
  
Fantasy Book Critic Review Rating: 80
"Lex Trent Versus The Gods" is unabashedly a romp which strongly depends on our willingness to suspend disbelief and go with the flow while marveling at the combination of familiar and weirdness the author throws in.
