Salvation

A twisty and hugely satisfying SF thriller that opens a portal on a new and exciting series Alastair Reynolds, author of Revelation Space

Know your enemy or be defeated.

An alien shipwreck is found on a newly discovered world, and it carries a cargo as strange as it is horrifying. Security Director Feriton Kayne assembles a high-powered squad to assess the threat. But one of the group is hiding something it will be up to the team to bring back answers, answers that will change everything . . .

Back on Earth, humanity can extend lifespans indefinitely, travel to the stars via portal technology and even make deserts bloom. We seem invulnerable. So when the alien Olyix contacted us, years earlier, we welcomed them. They needed fuel for their pilgrimage across the galaxy and in exchange they helped advance our technology. But will they prove a blessing or a curse?
