I'm still wading through the audiobooks of Peter F Hamilton's epic space opera series. Am now into the second book in the second series (trilogy). set about 1500 years after the first (pair).

It's fucking awesome. I love good space opera and this is excellent stuff. Beautifully written with great characterisation, set on epic scale.

The first pair, Pandora's Star and Judas Unchained wracked up to 80 hours of audiobook. The followup trilogy is around sixty hours or so.

Apparently he's working on a third trilogy. This makes me happy.

Right now, at like 110 hours of this stuff, i think I partly live in his Commonwealth universe.


[eta] I'd love to see someone turn it into a tv series.
