\"The<\/p>\n

Void Number 3<\/p>\n

From Goodread
\nExposed as the Second Dreamer, Araminta has become the target of a galaxywide search by government agent Paula Myo and the psychopath known as the Cat, along with others equally determined to prevent – or facilitate – the pilgrimage of the Living Dream cult into the heart of the Void. An indestructible microuniverse, the Void may contain paradise, as the cultists believe, but it is also a deadly threat. For the miraculous reality that exists inside its boundaries demands energy – energy drawn from everything outside those boundaries: from planets, stars, galaxies…from everything that lives.<\/i><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the parallel story of Edeard, the Waterwalker, as told through a series of addictive dreams communicated to the gaiasphere via Inigo, the First Dreamer, continues to unfold. But now the inspirational tale of this idealistic young man takes a darker and more troubling turn as he finds himself faced with powerful new enemies – and temptations more powerful still.<\/p>\n<\/i>

With time running out, a repentant Inigo must decide whether to release Edeard’s final dream: a dream whose message is scarcely less dangerous than the pilgrimage promises to be. And Araminta must choose whether to run from her unwanted responsibilities or face them down, with no guarantee of success or survival. But all these choices may be for naught if the monomaniacal Ilanthe, leader of the breakaway Accelerator Faction, is able to enter the Void. For it is not paradise she seeks there, but dominion.<\/i><\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>
\n The Evolutionary Void<\/a> by Peter F. Hamilton<\/a>
\n My rating: 4 of 5 stars<\/a><\/p>\n

A truly wonderful science fiction experience. I wanted to keep listening. What a saga. I seriously am impressed by authors who can maintain and work through a plot as Hamilton has. Sure the ending is a little bit of a let down (minus one star) and possibly a bit rushed but overall a great rounding off with a plausible(?), if anything in this book is plausible, ending.
Again I did this as an audio book and it was quite awesome (and long) but I doubt I would have kept up with the books.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
