Well, give them a try! I liked them better than the first 2. I know that doesn't mean you will too, but give Endymion 100 pages...see if I'm wrong. Most unknown books, or ones I'm skeptical of, I'll give them 100 pages, for some books are slow but steady, especially the books of the epic nature. The next 2 start a little faster than the previous 2, and also explain some things about certain characters that were left unanswered.
