It's decent hard-ish SF space opera (yes, I know). The plot was good, but he didn't wrap it up well.

Revelation Space: Reynolds introduces two (two!!) awesome female viewpoint characters (Ilia Volyova, Ana Khouri) plus one annoying male one (Dan Sylveste, annoying entitled bore #1). Of the plot-important other characters, most are male. Works perfectly well on its own, closes introduced plot lines decently. Apparently considered 'ponderous' by SF critics.

Redemption Ark: Another awesome female viewpoint character!! (Skade) Back-to-back badassery and sisterhood with Ana and Ilia!! Then come two annoying viewpoint dudes (Nevil Clavain, annoying self-righteous bore, and Scorpio, annoying murderous pig - literally) and a meh-to-annoying female viewpoint character (Antoinette Bax, why didn't you ever speak to other women or, um, acquire a personality beyond "plucky-ish hero personality(TM)"?)

Absolution Gap: Two viewpoint guys (Quaiche and Grelier). I kind of liked Grelier. Rashmika Els is introduced; her POV is okay until the plot hits her. Then the archetypical whiny entitled dude, Vasko Malinin comes onstage. Ugh.

( The spoilery stuff )
Well, I guess Mr. Reynolds did something right, seeing as I'm so motivated to fix everything :P
