Judas Unchained concludes the breathtaking Commonwealth Saga duology by Peter F. Hamilton, one of the world's bestselling science fiction authors. In this thrilling continuation, humanity stands on the brink of annihilation, manipulated into a devastating and far-reaching war.

For centuries, an insidious entity has been steering the course of human events to bring about a cataclysmic conflict. As the war rages on and countless worlds fall to the merciless enemy, Chief Investigator Paula Myo is tasked with uncovering the identity of the puppet master behind this grand scheme. Her relentless pursuit may be humanity's last hope.

Meanwhile, Admiral Kime, charged with directing the Commonwealth's defence, harnesses advanced super-weapons in a desperate attempt to stave off destruction. However, he faces a formidable opponent equipped with equally devastating technologies. Where did these weapons come from? Has the Commonwealth’s top-secret defence initiative been compromised, or does an even graver truth lie hidden in the shadows?

The mystery deepens and tensions rise as both Myo and Kime confront unexpected challenges, unveiling a web of deceit and power that stretches far beyond anything they ever imagined. The stakes are higher than ever; the survival of human civilization hangs in the balance.

The Commonwealth Saga begins with Pandora's Star, a novel that set the stage for this epic space opera, and Judas Unchained escalates the action and intrigue to new heights.

"If Pandora's Star represented a return to form, Judas Unchained is even better." - Guardian

Dive into a universe of high-stakes drama, cutting-edge technology, and unforgettable characters. Judas Unchained is the ultimate showdown in Hamilton's masterful saga, a must-read for fans of visionary science fiction.
