i would not say the trilogy necessarily works right through, because it is not always coherent, and it needs to be read as a single whole. but i advise persevering just the same. for one thing it is interesting as a minor sidelight to Sullivan's major standalone sf works, all of which are important. for another it features some interesting and well differentiated female characters, acted on by two male characters over time who are really archetypes, because they are portrayed as the inverse of one another. thirdly, there's a lot that's pretty original along the way: a primitive clan culture, a decadent empire, an upstart interim king, a sentient bird culture specializing in communications, and a secret alien cult, all trying to seize power by co-opting an advanced but long-dead civilization that tried to codify magic. what with the chaos, all these elements begin to intersect, and as they act, destabilize the world, which becomes stratified into strips of land belonging to different times and places, which can only be traversed by a kind of bone magic.
