I just wanted a few more comments about this series (after getting some opinions in the books of Sept. thread).
I'm liking the Axis trilogy enough to keep going with the Wayfarer Redemption. However, I read a few summaries of the books, and they sound pretty depressing to me, especially the last one, Crusader. It seems like the bad stuff is insurmountable. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the last Thomas Covenant trilogy, as dark and oppressive as it was, but I'd like to know that there is enough positive influence to make the evil overtones bearable.
Ok, I'll admit it, I like a somewhat happy ending and ending a book on a high note .
