    Satisfying story with a rushed feel to the ending
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 13, 2009*

I began reading The Golden City as soon as it was released.  Maybe it was just the Kindle edition but I noticed a lot of grammar errors and typos that seemed to show a lack of editing.  Beyond that distraction, the first part of the book was great - the story moved quickly but with a wealth of detail that really pulled you into the different realms.  Once the rescue from the First Realm was accomplished, it seemed that the author started rushing through the story.  The action continued moving quickly but the richness of detail was lost.As someone living in the Bible belt, I've heard "end-time" theories all my life and wondered what it would take to make people voluntarily submit to any type of tagging or branding especially for their children.  The author's scenario feels so real that it blows the mind.Hollis' travails are spooky weird and the best modern day quest I've ever read.With a tale as realistic as this, I think a neatly packaged ending would have been a disappointment so, while the end was a little unsatisfying, it fit.The series has the feel of a 21st century "Lord of the Rings". I'm grateful that the author shared his vision.

    Golden City - Closed for Renovations
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 21, 2010*

A classic example of an author who has run out of ideas. Or an author who has kicked to touch while he writes a "proper" 4th book that should have been the third one. I feel that I must take some personal responsibility for the poor conclusion to this book, as obviously JTH had written the book that I described when I had a vision when I travelled to the 7th realm, which was filled with cake recipes and knitting patterns, the so called "Womans Realm". Just for your edification, I have included some of my review for The Traveller below....."what you need to give your books some direction is a "set piece". Look, (places guiding arm around Mr Hawks' shoulders, or can I call you "Twelvy") with your global super-villains, you need 3 things. Firstly they should have a big base under a volcano or in space or something, secondly they should have a clear mission statement detailing their evil plot ("We intend to be a world class evil organisation, which values its employees, instils a shared responsibility to meet organisational aims and plans to use giant lasers to make the sun explode (or similar). The Tabula promotes total evil quality management and is ISO 9001 certified) and thirdly, there needs to be a set piece in the third book where people in black tactical suits storm the evil base, there are some explosions, some shooting and sword play, and ends with the sexy Harlequin lady having a big swordfight with the head of the Tabula (who is actually UK TV presenter, Noel Edmonds), who although fatally injured, manages to escape to one of the other "dimensions" as he is a Traveller himself! Maya then engages in some nooky, settles down into a humdrum family life and has a daughter, who shock horror is a Traveller herself!! This leads to further books etc etc.. Now, there you go! .."So obviously, he had to use some of my ideas, but seriously, (plot spoilers) in this book, the Bretheren are relegated from some sort of global super villains to an organisation who can be defeated by some dreadlocked youths with spray cans and a "can-do" attitude (and possibly skateboards as well, it isn't clear), the Demi-Gods realm is based on the film "Flash Gordon" and the Golden City is closed for the winter, with only Corrigan senior giving the place a lick of paint and working on his golf game on one of the many 6th realm golf courses surrounding the golden city. I implore JTH to contact me through this site to go over his plans for the next book, as everyone would have been much more happy, if he had written the book I describe in the review above. The only change I might consider is that Noel Edmonds might be replaced with Simon Cowell who I feel is an obvious global super villain.

Great series.  Really makes me think about the direction this world is heading.  We aren't there yet but it's getting close.
