About this listen
His previous novel, the acclaimed Pandora's Star, introduced the Intersolar Commonwealth, a star-spanning civilization of the 24th century. Robust, peaceful, and confident, the Commonwealth dispatched a ship to investigate the mystery of a disappearing star, only to inadvertently unleash a predatory alien species that turned on its liberators, striking hard, fast, and utterly without mercy.
Coexistence is impossible with the technologically advanced aliens, who are genetically hardwired to exterminate all other forms of life. Twenty-three planets have already fallen to the invaders, with casualties in the hundreds of millions. And no one knows when or where the genocidal Prime will strike next.
Nor are the Prime the only threat. For more than 100 years, a shadowy cult, the Guardians of Selfhood, has warned that an alien with mind-control abilities impossible to detect or resist - the Starflyer - has secretly infiltrated the Commonwealth. Branded as terrorists, the Guardians and their leader, Bradley Johansson, have been hunted by relentless investigator Paula Myo. But now evidence suggests that the Guardians were right all along and that the Starflyer has placed agents in vital posts throughout the Commonwealth - agents who are now sabotaging the war effort. Is the Starflyer an ally of the Prime, or has it orchestrated a fight to the death between the two species for its own advantage?
Caught between two deadly enemies, one a brutal invader striking from without, the other a remorseless cancer killing from within, the fractious Commonwealth must unite as never before. This will be humanity's finest hour - or its last gasp.

Cutting-edge technology of linked jump gates has rendered most forms of transportation - including starships - virtually obsolete.

And all seems wonderful - until a crashed alien spaceship of unknown origin is found on a newly located world 89 light-years from Earth, carrying a cargo as strange as it is horrifying. To assess the potential of the threat a high-powered team is dispatched to investigate. But one of them may not be all they seem....

The keys to this empire belong to the powerful North family - composed of successive generations of clones. Yet these clones are not identical. For one thing, genetic errors have crept in with each generation. For another, the original three clone "brothers" have gone their separate ways, and the branches of the family are now friendly rivals more than allies. Or maybe not so friendly....

The lights went out. The world fell apart. Now, survival is the only rule. When a devastating solar storm wipes out the power grid, civilization collapses nearly overnight. No power. No running water. No law. Panic ignites the streets as food disappears, cities burn, and violence spreads like wildfire. Retired Army Captain James “Hunter” Seaton always knew society was hanging by a thread—just nine missed meals from anarchy—but even he wasn’t prepared for how fast everything would unravel. In his quiet Tennessee neighborhood, fear turns neighbors into threats, and survival means ...

Story
Ben, Chloe, Mark, and the others are off on another adventure, one in which they stumble across another war out in the depths of space. But, this time, there are no obvious good aliens and bad aliens, and things are not going their way. One encounter somehow morphs into a Cozy Alien Murder Mystery. Another involves a race composed of potentially poisonous toxic material that can shape shift. Then, they encounter even more aliens, and nothing is what it seems. The clues are there, but one wrong step, and there will be more dead aliens and possibly dead humans.

Better than the first book
Because Hamilton has already built much of his commonwealth galaxy, the second book is focused more on actually telling the narrative and less on world building.
Overall a satisfying conclusion.

Enjoyed it a lot
John Lee does a fine job of narrating a long and complex story, working hard to keep his characters consistent throughout. I hope Audible will consider adding to the Peter Hamilton items in the library.

Great story, audio had some annoying problems
I thoroughly enjoyed the story, and I’m writing this at 3am after finishing the last couple of riveting chapters. I can’t recommend this story enough!
The only problem I had was the hugely annoying audio issues in the first parts. The audio was recorded with incorrect compressor settings, which resulted in the first syllable of each sentence being incredibly loud followed by it rapidly becoming quiet. With every volume knob at maximum, I would suffer between a shouted word, followed by the trailing off audio that required rewinding several times to catch what was said throughout several chapters.

Excellent hard sci-fi
This is a long, convoluted story spanning a large cast of characters and many worlds but it still manages to keep me sitting in my car after my commute completely enthralled. The Sci-Fi feels very plausible and the author seems to really understand how technology changes society. The reader does a great job, occasionally slipping up on an accent or doubling up several characters with the same voice but given the huge cast and great length that's not surprising.

excellent plot and well developed characters
I love the vision of the world the author created and how he uses it to explore challenging ethical questions that are critical to the evolution and resolution of this story. Aspects of the story are somewhat formulaic, but much is extremely original. Very well crafted overall....

very imaginative
it really ends the story nicely, following all the characters in the first book.
if you hear this book while driving, tha readers voice is terrible. his low tone is to low to be understood in conjunction with the noise given by the tires on the road.

Quite an epic tale
Really long but damn is it worth it. The narrator has a Captain Kirk style of speaking but if that doesn't bother you he did a good job.

Goes E.E. Doc Smith one better
This sequel to Hamilton's Pandora's Star continues the saga of the Commonwealth battles with the alien Primes, and does so in an even more expansive and space-operatic form (it is essential to read Pandora's Star first or you'll be lost). Hamilton uses the old E.E. "Doc" Smith tactic of introducing ever more powerful and fantastic technologies in every other chapter, coming very close to overdoing it at times. In that respect, and because the story is not quite as focused, this novel ranks a notch below its predecessor, but it's still a really compelling story (set of stories, really) about the many different ways in which people have to adapt to an increasingly large and dangerous universe, not to mention their own technology with its AI, biological enhancements, rejuvenation, and galaxy-spanning transportation system. It has the same strengths of detailed character development and a serious effort to make the science plausible (still too much hand-waving at times) as Pandora's Star, but it is long and does require a commitment of time and attention to get all the subtleties. It's not a great book for casual listening. But if you're looking for a good old-fashioned space epic full of interesting ideas and characters, this one is tough to beat. Narration is just okay, but does not detract.
