So, the new Peter F Hamilton book, "Night without Stars" is out. It's a sequel to "The Abyss beyond Dreams".

Thanks for the heads up. One of my favourite SF authors.

Always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.

Indeed the safest road to Hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. C.S. Lewis, 1898 - 1963.

Currently working through the Void trilogy - hadn't heard of either of these - much obliged.

I enjoyed the first of the "fallers" books, more so than any of the original void trilogy. Looking forward to reading this.

Well just finished it and it gets a big thumbsup from me. Excellent.

PFH's books sometimes suffer from Deus Ex Machina (as this one does), but the journey is usually still pretty good smile

My favourite PFH books are still The Night's Dawn trilogy (currently working my way toward a 4th reading), even though that whole story suffers from an almost literal Deus Ex Machina solution.
