Revelation Space

Revelation Space
Revelation Space

Epic space opera; mystery spans civilizations.

"Revelation Space" is a journey ideal for fans of grand, cosmic-scale sci-fi. The sense of depth Alastair Reynolds gives to this universe is astounding, interweaving an ancient alien mystery with complex human characters. The narrative is as expansive as the space it explores, with surprises that make the vast emptiness feel alive with secrets. If you cherish tales that marry archeological puzzles with star-spanning peril, this book might just consume you.

Description

Nine hundred thousand years ago, something wiped out the Amarantin. For the human colonists settling the Amarantin homeworld Resurgam, it's of little more than academic interest. But Dan Sylveste will stop at nothing to get at the truth.
