Salvation is the first title in a stunning science fiction trilogy, the Salvation Sequence, by Peter F. Hamilton. For fans of Iain M. Banks and Dan Simmons.
Know your enemy – or be defeated.
AD 2204 An alien shipwreck is discovered on a planet at the very limits of human expansion – so Security Director Feriton Kayne selects a team to investigate. The ship’s sinister cargo not only raises bewildering questions, but could also foreshadow humanity’s extinction. It will be up to the team to bring back answers, and the consequences of this voyage will change everything.
Back on Earth, we can now make deserts bloom and extend lifespans indefinitely. Humanity seems invulnerable. We therefore welcomed the Olyix to Earth when they contacted us. They needed fuel for their pilgrimage across the galaxy – and in exchange they helped us advance our technology. But were the Olyix a blessing or a curse?
THE FAR FUTURE Many lightyears from Earth, Dellian and his clan of genetically engineered soldiers are raised with one goal. They must confront and destroy their ancient adversary. The enemy that caused mankind to flee across the galaxy and that hunts us still. If they aren’t stopped, we will be wiped out – and we’re running out of time.
Continue the SF thrills with Salvation Lost and The Saints of Salvation.
'A space-opera intrigue with a cold shock of an ending that makes the sequel a matter of urgency' – Ken MacLeod, author of The Sky Road

Ok bok men uppläsaren lämnar en del att önska.Ibland hängde jag inte med när de hoppade mellan platser och personer. Skulle gissa att original böckerna gjorde det tydligt med kapitel eller liknande men i denna ljudbok flyter det samman ibland. Speciellt om man gör något annat medan man lyssnar. Rösterna för en del personer känns inte heller trovärdiga eller bra.

Alla Peters böcker är otroligt bra, men det tar tid att komma in i dom. Nästan en hel bok går åt.

A little difficult to keep track of the shift of time lines with the audio book, can imagine it being a little easier with the printed version. Can't wait to read the next book.One star less because of the narrator - I wish for another narrator, I have a problem with the dry non-melodic voice and 'stiff upper lip' English used, that's hopefully how he speaks normally but it is not pleasant to listen to.

Jag hade tre problem med det dysfunktionella samhälle som presenterades i boken: (1) Rättväsendet obefintligt - myndigheter kunde deportera människor till avlägsna planeter eller döda dem utan rättslig prövning och motiveringen var att de inte alltid var säkra på att få personerna dömda och att rättegång och fängelse var kostsamma. (2) Storebror det dig - medborgare kunde knappt gå till badrummet utan att någon myndighet hade vetskap om detta. (3) Miljöaspekt obefintlig - återvinning var ett okänt begrepp. Allt skräp bara dumpas. Jag hade hoppats att ett framtida samhälle hade kommit längre. I övrigt tyckte jag att boken var bra.

Det ska bli spännande att lyssna hur den här trilogin slutar. Peter f Hamilton levererar än en gång en detaljerad bok med världsbyggande. Påminner mycket om första boken i commonwealth serien. Många nya namn att lägga på minnet(igen). Rekommenderas

It began slow but picked up after 15 hours. It started to get really interesting when it ended.

Bra tror jag, tämligen förvirrande storyline.

A bit confusing at the beginning, but building up to a real nail biter towards the end

Svårt att hänga med i alla nya ”trådar” och uppläsaren gör det INTE bättre. Men jag ska göra ett försök på bok två o se om det kanske blir bättre som flera andra skrivit….
