“The opposite of Faith isn't doubt. The opposite of Faith is certainty”...”Being humble before God means accepting that you may not possess the only path to Him.” (Defy the Fates, Chapter 23)

This series is a very powerful argument against extremism in all it's forms and an argument for judging people purely on the content of their character.

It's many things, particularly a very well written romance and an epic Science Fiction adventure, but the social commentary has been building through the series and becomes quite clear (and quite forceful) in this last book. I in no way think this impeded the storytelling – in fact I felt like punching the air and shouting “You tell them!” in some of the final scenes.

I seriously hope that we have not seen the last from this entertaining, fun, yet thoughtful series.
