Finished Cryoburn. Was disappointed. Too much of other characters telling how Miles is awesome and/or recapping previous books and/or exposition about various characters and "where are they now??" - she's usually more deft about that kind of info-dumping. Not enough wild adventures and/or clever maneuvering demonstrating Miles' awesomeness. Ekaterin sidelined (again!) Not enough personal stake in the plot. I wanted to read the book that STARTED with the last two pages.

Yes. This. I described it as an indifferent novel with quite possibly the best two pages she's ever written at the very end.

Just finished it (so this is a comment of super-belatedness) and totes agreed (see my newest post). Those last two pages were so kick-ass and it's breaking my heart to wait for whatever book follows them.
