✦ Synopsis


Review

"Good, solid, hard SF"." STARBURST "The massive scale and ever-shifting cast make it pleasingly reminiscent of Asimov's 'Foundation'. " SFX "The stories are varied, intriguing and thought-provoking. Unmissable." -- Dave Golder BBC FOCUS

Product Description

RESPLENDENT is a collection of stories that encompasses mankind's epic fight for survival against the Xeelee, a narrative of how man will change and evolve over our epic journey out into the universe. These tales will encompass the rise of sub-molecular empires in the first nanoseconds after the Big Bang to mankind's final transformation. Full of cutting-edge science, descriptions of time and space on a mind-boggling scale and memorable, all-too-human characters. It is both the capstone to one of the most significant series in the history of SF and a remarkable achievement in its own right. This is a mature and uniquely talented writer at the height of his powers.
