Night's Dawn

In the year AD 2600, humanity has achieved extraordinary feats. Genetically engineered creatures thrive in space, while sentient starships traverse the stars, amassing wealth by industrializing entire star systems. The Confederation Navy maintains peace throughout inhabited space. But when a renegade criminal encounters an alien entity on a primitive colony planet, it triggers a catastrophic event that threatens everything humanity has become. This phenomenon, which an extinct race once called ‘the Reality Dysfunction’, is a nightmare that has haunted us since the dawn of time. . .

The ancient menace has finally escaped from Lalonde, shattering the Confederation's peaceful existence. Those who succumbed to it have acquired godlike powers but now follow a far from divine gospel as they advance inexorably from world to world. On planets and asteroids, individuals battle for survival against the strange and brutal forces unleashed upon the universe.

The third book in the The Night's Dawn trilogy, The Naked God by Peter F. Hamilton is an epic conclusion to dramatic and compelling series. The Confederation is starting to collapse politically and economically, allowing the possessed to infiltrate more worlds. Quinn Dexter is loose on Earth, destroying the giant arcologies one at a time. As Louise Kavanagh tries to track him down, she manages to acquire some strange and powerful allies whose goal does not match her own.
