I think the reason I wasn't keen was the theme of the villain from outside who intrudes to con the colonists, instead of having them somehow come out from the deluded attitudes seen in the second book. It would've been better if Hughes had instead written another book set between the first 2 volumes, which dealt with how Mark Taylor took over the colony and showed the struggle between him and the older Jody - that would have made for a tense and dramatic story that came out of the original set of characters.
