The Saints of Salvation
Humanity rises to meet a powerful alien threat, in this extraordinary conclusion to Peter F. Hamilton’s Salvation Sequence. This is a high-octane adventure from 'the most powerful imagination in science fiction' (Ken Follett).
Live in hiding – or die for freedom
Humanity welcomed the Olyix and their utopian technology. But mankind was tricked. Now these visitors are extracting a terrible price.
For two years, the Olyix have laid siege to Earth, harvesting its people for their god. One by one, cities are falling to their devastating weaponry. And while millions have fled to seek refuge in space, others continue to fight an apparently unwinnable war.
As Earth's defeat draws near, a team attempts to infiltrate the Salvation of Life – the Olyix’s arkship. If it succeeds, those chosen will travel to a hidden enclave thousands of light years away. Once there, they must signal its location to future generations, to bring the battle to the enemy. Maybe allies scattered throughout space and time can join forces. Yet in the far future, humanity are still hunted by their ancient adversary. And as forces battle on in the cold reaches of space, hope seems distant indeed...
The Saints of Salvation is the epic conclusion to the Salvation Sequence by Peter F. Hamilton.

Peter F. Hamilton
Peter F. Hamilton's name resonates with fans of sprawling, intricate science fiction tales that blur the boundaries of human ambition, artificial intelligence, and the vast reaches of space. Born in Rutland, England, in 1960, Hamilton has transformed the genre with his ability to weave grand narratives that span centuries and galaxies, all while exploring the intimate threads of human emotion and conflict.
Hamilton’s journey as a writer began in the late 1980s, with his first short story sold to Fear magazine in 1988. But it wasn’t until the release of Mindstar Rising in 1993 that he first captured the imaginations of readers. From there, his reputation skyrocketed, especially with the monumental success of The Night's Dawn Trilogy. This epic space opera marked him as one of the key voices in modern science fiction. His works, often set in detailed universes brimming with complex characters and world-shaking events, quickly made him a fixture on bestseller lists, with millions of copies of his books flying off shelves worldwide.
