I just finished reading Peter F. Hamilton’s book Pandora’s Star. It’s a well written, but large, book, with multiple story lines that he’s started bringing together near the end of it. It starts telling the story of humanity’s expansion into the universe via wormhole technology and their encounter with an alien species whose though processes are so alien to humans or any of the other alien races that it sets out to exterminate all other species.

The book ends with a cliffhanger, but the next one in the series, Judas Unchained will be released in early 2006 so I’ll just have to wait until then.
