Synopsis
The extraordinary second volume in Peter F. Hamilton’s space opera masterpiece, the Salvation Sequence.
‘Action-oriented hardcore science fiction at its page-turning best’ – The Guardian
Fight together - or die alone.
In the twenty-third century, humanity is enjoying a comparative utopia. Yet life on Earth is about to change, forever. Feriton Kane’s team has discovered a terrifying alien conspiracy. The supposedly benign Olyix plan to harvest humanity, then carry this apocalyptic cargo to their god at the end of the universe. As their agents conclude schemes down on Earth, vast warships converge above . . .
Some factions push for humanity to flee, to live in hiding amongst the stars. But others refuse to break before the storm. As disaster looms, they must all focus on one goal: wiping the enemy from the face of creation
