WILL THEIR HEARTS' DESIRE DOOM A CIVILIZATION?
The Commonwealth is in turmoil, as a cult prepares for its pilgrimage into the Void. Breaching its boundaries could cause an irreparable rift in space. Yet these fanatics are unstoppable, convinced by the Void's projections of a paradise within. An alien invasion fleet is also on the way, as the Ocisen Empire attempts to take advantage of humanity's confusion.
Investigator Paula Myo must hunt the Void's latest prophet in an attempt to stop her spreading its enticing visions. And at the heart of events is Edeard the Waterwalker, who lived long ago within the Void. Tales of his glorious story inspired the Pilgrimage - but may yet expose the Void's true nature.
'All of Hamilton's trademark strengths are on show . . . mind-expanding'
Guardian
'Hugely impressive . . . Nobody does big SF quite like Hamilton'
SFX
'Vastly satisfying . . . Hamilton has single-handedly raised the bar'

The Temporal Void takes up directly where The Dreaming Void left off. Where the first book was a huge setup, now the story picks up pace. The focus lies now on Edeard and his live in Makathran. And due to this worlds low tech society it has more the feel of a fantasy novel, with his telekinetic powers as magic. The relatively small scenes in the Commonwealth universe act more like interludes to advance this storyline and therefore we don't get to see so much character development on that front. This book definitely benefits from the excellent groundwork the first book laid. The mix of scifi and "fantasy" makes it a really interesting read so far and I'm so anxious to see how everything concludes that I will start The Evolutionary Void right now!
