Consistently hi-quality. I haven't read a Reynolds novel that I've disliked. I'm always surprised, pleasantly, by how he can turn relatively innocent main characters into normal people thrown into massively world-changing situations and yet still allow them the opportunities to make the big decisions that change the galaxy anyway. These are very fun and satisfying novels. Every time I think to myself, "Well, this is probably not my cup of tea, I'll just get through this one and then move on to another author," I get to the end with frantic enjoyment in my heart that puts me in knots. 
 Suffice to say, I then have to go get another of his novels. Thank god he's still alive and writing. 
 Fantastic fun, all. Future history rules, ATW! :)
