The year is 2204, and humanity has conquered distance itself. Linked jump gates connect Earth and far-flung colonies across the galaxy, rendering starships nearly obsolete. Every world is just a step away. It feels like utopia—until a crashed alien vessel is found eighty-nine light-years from Earth, carrying a cargo both mysterious and horrifying.
A high-level team is dispatched to investigate, tasked with uncovering whether the wreck is a warning or an invitation. But someone among them may not be who they appear to be. And in the shadows of paradise, the seeds of catastrophe are taking root.
With dazzling scope and relentless tension, Peter F. Hamilton’s Salvation launches the Salvation Sequence—an ambitious space opera from one of the genre’s most imaginative voices.
