Our view
“The Naked God” closes “The Night’s Dawn Trilogy” at nearly 1,200 pages, and its strength is the completeness of the universe Hamilton has built. He describes places, events and a crowd of players in close detail, and readers who love the trilogy love it for exactly that. Some find the length too much and the characters, for all the space given to them, closer to types than to people.
