The Dreaming Void

Peter F. Hamilton

In the distant future of 3589, humanity faces an existential threat from the Void, a self-contained microuniverse that steadily consumes all in its path. When astrophysicist Inigo begins dreaming of a paradise within the Void, a new religion, the Living Dream, emerges, with him as its prophet. However, Inigo's subsequent disappearance and the emergence of a mysterious Second Dreamer spark a massive Pilgrimage into the Void, potentially triggering its catastrophic expansion. A desperate race ensues to find Inigo and the Second Dreamer, as factions clash over the fate of the Pilgrimage and a supreme entity within the Void turns its attention outward.
