Something destroyed the Amarantin nine hundred thousand years ago.
The Amarantin homeworld is of little more than intellectual interest to the humans now inhabiting it, despite the discovery of an enormous statue depicting an Amarantin with wings and a long-hidden, almost flawless metropolis.
It's more than just academic curiosity for the cunning, smart scientist Dan Sylveste, who will do all it takes to discover the truth. even if it means everything for him.
However, there's a reason the Amarantin were exterminated, and that reason is because there's more danger ahead than Syveste realizes.
Both the Arthur C. Clarke and the British Science Fiction Associations nominated the first book in the epic trilogy, Revelation Space. Because of his astronomy PhD and ESA expertise, Reynolds' space operas have had a long-lasting influence on science fiction by presenting hard scientific perspectives on interstellar travels.
