Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Peter Hamilton's space-opera saga, which began with The Reality Dysfunction, continues in The Neutronium Alchemist. Now the battle lines are clearly drawn, and more than half a dozen plot lines are charging ahead as humanity's galaxy-spanning culture faces a terrifying revelation: souls of the dead are returning from the beyond to possess the living. The living, though competent and brave in the best sci-fi tradition, must contend with history's greatest generals and leaders, as well as some unexpected champions. Al Capone, it seems, makes an excellent interstellar emperor. How do you fight an enemy whose every soldier is also a hostage and who, if killed, will simply return to possess someone else? The dilemmas are not just technical, but moral, as people face the first real proof of life after death.

This conflict is far broader, though, than a simple apocalyptic battle of good versus evil. Among the possessors are some good souls who fight the risen dead even though it's against their best interest. Conversely, plenty of the living see siding with the dead as an opportunity to further their own interests. Action, wonders, and mystery continue to characterize this high-quality series. --Brooks Peck



Product Description

The second volume in the "Night's Dawn" trilogy. An ancient menace has escaped from Lalonde, shattering the Confederation's existence. In such times the last thing the galaxy needs is a new, powerful weapon. Yet Dr Mzu is determined to retrieve the Alchemist, so that she can complete a vendetta.

4.0 out of 5 stars The start of something addictive, 4 Sep 2003
This was the first book I ever read by Peter F Hamilton. I was so hooked I have now read most of the books he has written. This is the start of a Trilogy that is impossible to put down. This book asks more questions than it answers, but when it all becomes clear in the third book, the feeling of satisfaction is immense. Well written and so visual, sheer pleasure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb - Carries on the high standard of The Reality Dysfunc, 16 Feb 1999
By A Customer
After reading the reality dysfunction, I was going mad waiting for the release of this book. When I got my hands on it, they didn't leave. I read the lot in 4 days. This feat of endurance passed without me really noticing, I was completely carried away with the intricate plot, fascinated by the concepts (both scientific and spiritual) and completely hooked on the narrative. My only regret is that Im having to wait for the final part of this trilogy. Anyone know when it's due to be published ?
