Synopsis
The third volume in the 'Night's Dawn' trilogy Hell just went quantum...The Confederation is starting to collapse politically and economically, allowing the 'possessed' to infiltrate more worlds. Quinn Dexter is loose on Earth, destroying the giant arcologies one at a time. As Louise Kavanagh tries to track him down, she manages to acquire some strange and powerful allies whose goal does not match her own. The campaign to liberate Mortonbridge from the possessed degenerates into a horrendous land battle, the kind that hasn't been seen by humankind for six hundred years. Then some of the protagonists escape in a very unexpected direction...Joshua Clavert and Syrinx now fly their starships on a mission to find the Sleeping God - which an alien race believes holds the key to finally overthrowing the possessed.

Customer Reviews

Awesome
Lets keep it short - If you like sci fi and you like to read, really like to read - a lot (it is particularly long) then crack on. This trilogy is one of the finest space sci fi sets I have ever read by a long way.

Lame ending
Where did it all go wrong? Where is the sense of any darkness that the first part of the trilogy promised? It's as if the story ran out of steam. By the time I skimmed the awful and unbelievable 'plot-device-by-magical-numbers' ending I no longer cared. Write less, write more darkly, play with ambiguities, and leave the reading guessing. No more Peter Hamilton for me - life's too short.
