The Night's Dawn trilogy - De boekenserie

Peter F Hamilton's Night's Dawn trilogy takes place in AD2600, when the human race is finally beginning to realize its full potential. Hundreds of colonized planets across the galaxy host a multitude of prosperous and wildly diverse cultures. Genetic engineering has pushed evolution far beyond nature's boundaries, defeating disease and producing extraordinary creatures. Huge fleets of sentient trader starships thrive on the wealth created by the industrialization of entire star systems. And throughout inhabited space the Confederation Navy keeps the peace.

But now something has gone catastrophically wrong. On a primitive colony planet a renegade criminal's chance encounter with an alien entity unleashes the most primal of all our fears. An extinct race which inhabited the galaxy aeons ago called it 'The Reality Dysfunction'. It is the nightmare which has prowled beside us since the beginning of history.
