Reviews

“The depth and clarity of the future Hamilton envisions is as complex and involving as they come.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“The author’s expansive vision of the future combines action and intrigue on a panoramic scale.”—Library Journal

“Astounding . . . Thrilling . . . Hamilton uses technology to excellent effect.”—Science Fiction Age

“Shows how thought-provoking yet entertaining science fiction can be. Some of the best fiction . . . in years.”—Midwest Book Review

“[Hamilton is] taking on one of sf’s (and maybe all of literature’s) primal jobs: the creation of a world with the scale and complexity of the real one.”—Locus

“[Hamilton is] a rare talent.”—The Denver Post

In the 24th century, human civilization has spread throughout the stars, making contact with a few peaceful alien species. When a research team launches a ship through a wormhole to investigate a planetary phenomenon-the encapsulation of a pair of planets in a Dyson sphere or force field-humanity's curiosity unleashes a deadly invasion that threatens the existence of all sentient life in the universe. The author of The Reality Dysfunction and Fallen Dragon launches another sf adventure of epic proportions exploring the human need to satisfy its unending thirst for knowledge. A large cast of characters, each with his own story, brings depth and variety to this far-future saga, whose sequel, Judas Unleashed, will be published in 2005. Recommended for sf collections.
