Peter F. Hamilton: The Saints of Salvation, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Live in hiding - or die for freedom

Humanity welcomed the Olyix and their utopian technology. But mankind was tricked. For two years, these visitors have laid siege to Earth, harvesting its people for their god. One by one, cities are falling to their devastating weaponry. And while millions have fled into space, others continue fighting an apparently unwinnable war.

As Earth's defeat draws near, a team attempts to infiltrate the Salvation of Life - the Olyix's arkship. If it succeeds, those chosen will travel to a hidden enclave thousands of lightyears away. Once there, they must signal its location to future generations, to bring the battle to the enemy. Yet in the far future, humanity is still hunted by its ancient adversary. And as forces battle on in the cold reaches of space, hope seems distant indeed . . .
