Overall, this series of books was an enjoyable read. I grant that advancements came faster than a speeding bullet, humanity learned to leap tall buildings in a single bound, and technical abilites advances to the point that humanity became the dominant species of the universe in a matter of a relativley few years. It doesn't get to cute in defining all these advancements; that would lead to complications in the telling of the yarns and give fodder to those who like to criticise the details.What does all this matter, anyway, when the objective of the author is to spin a yarn on a grand scale.While the belivability of the whole thing strains the imagination, that doesn't detract from it being a fun read and I enjoyed the series overall. This last book did a pretty good job of wrapping it up so that a fifth tale isn't needed. That's fine, because it went on long enough to make its points.
