I loved Pandora's Star and Judas Unchained. Then I started the Night's Dawn trilogy. I made it about half way through the first book ... DNF.
I loved the vast space opera style of the first two. The metaphysics of the second one, despite still having everything I loved about ther others, was just so depressing that it ruined the whole story for me. So much so that I have not picked up another P.H. book since.
In any case, I would appreciate recommendations for more Peter Hamilton books like the first two that avoids the issues I had with the second.
