Salvation by Peter F. Hamilton Book Summary

Humanity’s complex relationship with technology spirals out of control in this first book of an all-new series from “the owner of the most powerful imagination in science fiction” (Ken Follett).

“How far ‘space opera’ has come! The Old Masters of sci-fi would admire the scope and sweep of Salvation.”—The Wall Street Journal

In the year 2204, humanity is expanding into the wider galaxy in leaps and bounds. Cutting-edge technology of linked jump gates has rendered most forms of transportation—including starships—virtually obsolete. Every place on Earth, every distant planet humankind has settled, is now merely a step away from any other. All seems wonderful—until a crashed alien spaceship of unknown origin is found on a newly located world eighty-nine light-years from Earth, carrying a cargo as strange as it is horrifying. To assess the potential of the threat, a high-powered team is dispatched to investigate.  But one of them may not be all they seem. . . .

Bursting with tension and big ideas, Peter F. Hamilton’s Salvation is the first book of an all-new series that highlights the inventiveness of an author at the top of his game.

Praise for Salvation

“[A] vast, intricate sci-fi showstopper . . . The journey grips just as hard as the reveal.”—Daily Mail (U.K.)
 
“Exciting, wildly imaginative and quite possibly Hamilton’s best book to date.”—SFX

“Dynamic, multifaceted characters, strong mind-expanding concepts, and impressive flair for language [make Salvation a] rare celestial event. . . . One of Britain’s bestselling sci-fi authors has launched an addictive new book as the initial stage of what is sure to be an intriguing new series called the Salvation Sequence.”—SyFyWire 

“Peter Hamilton just keeps getting better and better with each book, more assured and more craftsmanly adroit, and more inventive. [Salvation is] a bravura performance from start to finish. . . . Hamilton is juggling chainsaws while simultaneously doing needlepoint over a shark tank. It’s a virtuoso treat, and I for one can hardly wait for Salvation Lost.”—Paul Di Filippo, Locus 

“Peter F. Hamilton is known as one of the world’s greatest sci-fi writers for a reason. . . . Salvation is well worth the effort and a great introduction to some good old-fashioned space opera.”—Fantasy Book Review

Salvation by Peter Hamilton. Impenetrable garbage. He writes like his tummy is upset, actually naming non-relevant characters who appear once. Who does that? I’m several hundred pages in and refuse to finish this claptrap. Waste of money.

No thanks. Just couldn’t get into it. Clumsy. Poor character development. Made it to 1/3 the way through and hung it up. Next.

Sounds familiar…?. I absolutely love Peter Hamilton, but wormholes and an alien on a distant planet? Pandoras Star/Judas Unchained all over again? I mean, i’m gonna buy it and read it irregardless. But the premise seems rehashed from a Peter Hamilton perspective. I would expect more. Written 2-8-2018, waaaayyy before release date.

Fantastic Edge of Your Seat Storytelling!. PFH expertly threads multiple stories to tell a gripping sci-fi mystery. Once I got 40 or so pages in, I couldn’t put this book down.

Another Great Book. This book is a background for the ones to come. It is not an exciting read since it helps to understand who the key characters are and sets up the plot. I expect the next book will involve a lot more action typical of Hamilton.

Another amazing one!. The modern king of sci-if delivers again!

Dull. Characters driven by plot points rather than development creates a cliche and formulated heap of duh. This is a painfully slow book to read and contains no intriguing dynamic because everyone is one dimensional. Could not read all the way through

Ridiculously entertaining. I had a hard time putting my phone down lol. It was a great read. Excited for the next two books!!

Could have been great. Really interesting concept. For me I wish there was a touch higher ratio of action to intrigue. I found the inclusion of homosexuality, and transgenderism as an unpleasant distraction which is personal preference; but the concept of it becoming an evolutionary peak to be nonsensical from a scientific standpoint, but I guess the author needed to put the fiction part into science-fiction.

Crap. Crap

It just clunks along. The concept of a “portal” for instantaneous transportation has been explored by many authors. Hamilton’s extrapolations are imaginative but implausible. Reading Salvation is like watching a movie where the first half consists entirely of establishing shots. After a while you lose interest.
