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 !
