Né en 1960 en Angleterre, Peter F. Hamilton a débuté sa carrière d'écrivain en 1987. Il s'est très vite imposé comme l'un des piliers du renouveau de la SF britannique. Mais là où ses amis auteurs exploraient de nouveaux courants, Hamilton a préféré faire revivre l'émerveillement des grandes aventures spatiales chères aux grands auteurs de l'âge d'or : Asimov, Clarke et Heinlein. Dans ce domaine, ses cycles L'Aube de la nuit et L'Étoile de Pandore font référence. Il est le maître incontesté du space opera moderne !
A clone has been the victim of a savage killing. The investigation may uncover a threat to humanity's very existence.
Great North Road is a gripping space adventure from science fiction star Peter F. Hamilton, the author of The Night's Dawn trilogy. For fans of Philip K. Dick and Kim Stanley Robinson.
In Newcastle, AD 2142, a clone from the powerful North family is found brutally murdered. Assigned to the case, Detective Sidney Hurst makes a startlingly discovery: the circumstances are eerily identical to a series of murders from twenty years ago on the alien world of St Libra.
Angela Tramelo, the sole survivor of the previous attack, was convicted for the crime. Yet she never wavered under interrogation – claiming she alone survived an alien attack. Was she telling the truth?
Investigating this alien threat becomes top priority and a vast expedition to the planet St Libra begins. Angela, begrudgingly released, accompanies them. But then the team finds themselves stranded in St Libra's dense alien rainforests. And then the bloodshed begins . . .
Filled with intrigue, suspense and alien threats, Great North Road by Peter F. Hamilton is perfect for fans of Philip K. Dick and Kim Stanley Robinson.
