Review: don't get sucked into this trilogy; you will be disappointed

I enjoyed Astra Synchronicity, BUT...  The reason for the low rating I have given the book is primarily due to the fact Synchronicity is but the first installment in a larger story and does not stand on its own well.  More than that, the second book, Astra The Reckoning is an unbridled piece of garbage.  The main characters all start acting in ways contrary to their character and in doing so become loathsome.  I don't know about you, but I can't keep reading when the protagonists start acting in ways that show they are really just poor excuses for human beings.  If you invest your time in this series you will be disappointed.  Given my extreme disappointment with book 2, some of the failings in book 1 that I put up with now stick in my craw.  Namely, you can also look forward to such amateur hour goodies like the overuse and continued misuse of the word facade, and a protagonist with telekinetic powers who is too stupid to realize that he can win any fight by simply lifting his opponent off the ground and holding him there (or an author to stupid to think of that and at least address it).
