Pandora's Star
By Peter F. Hamilton | Season One
In a Commonwealth where wormholes have made starships obsolete and death is just a detour through a rejuvenation tank, a washed-up professor catches the impossible through his telescope: a distant sun vanishing in less than a heartbeat, sealed away by something with the power to switch off a star. As Dudley Bose fights to prove what no one wants to believe, a relentless investigator surfaces from a fourteen-month slumber to hunt a terrorist she's chased for over a century—and the first man ever to land on Mars, long ago beaten to the prize, gets one more chance to be first. Someone built a cage around a star. The only question left is whether they did it to keep something out, or to keep something in.
