Feasible, possibly even recommended. SCAR NIGHT has a good story, a fun setting, some brilliant action and is overall quite well written.

But the second book, which isn't bad, ends with a complete and total cliffhanger for the third, which is utter author implosion fail waste of money and time imnsho.

If you think you can restrain yourself from reading the third even after a big cliffhanger, go ahead and read the 2nd all the way through. There are some good "twists" which caught me by surprise near the end that I enjoyed, but then there's the cliffhanger...

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

The part that bugs me is that he had two solid books in him... SCAR and IRON are good, in parts great even. And then... pfft.
You can even see the bits in CLOCKS that could have been worked into a perfectly decent conclusion to the trilo, but instead... pfft.
With extra pfft.

- Abyss, pfft off by the whole thing.
