About the book

WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER  • “An interstellar suspense thriller . . . sweeping in scope and emotional range.”—San Antonio Express-News

In the star-spanning civilization known as the Intersolar Commonwealth, twenty-three planets have fallen victim to the Prime, a technologically advanced alien species genetically hardwired to exterminate all other forms of life. But the Prime is not the only threat. The Starflyer, an alien with mind-control abilities impossible to detect or resist, has secretly infiltrated the Commonwealth and is 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, the fractious Commonwealth must unite as never before. This will be humanity’s finest hour—or its last gasp.

Praise for Judas Unchained, the sequel to Pandora’s Star

    Fantastic conclusion to the Commonwealth Saga and gladly no cliffhanger ending. Peter F. Hamilton tied all lose ends neatly together and let just a few tiny plot strands open, which I guess will be picked up in the Void Trilogy, set in the same universe. I ordered it directly, because I really enjoy Peter F. Hamiltons writing style and his eye for the detail on the technical aspects of his world building. If he could broaden his focus on the social and ethical aspects it would be a truly amazing world and I hope he improves on this front a bit. With Peter F. Hamilton I definitely found one of my new favorite authors in this genre and I can only recommend listening to the audiobook. John Lee did an amazing job and I was glad to discover he also did the audio for the Void Trilogy. tl;dr: If you love space operas , put the Commonwealth Saga on #1 of your to-read list !
