About this listen

War rages on. All seems lost to this immense devastation. Across the galaxy, humanity's last hope may lie in wait. The Naked God is the epic, thrilling conclusion to the Night's Dawn trilogy, from Peter F. Hamilton.

The Confederation is verging on collapse, unable to prevent the enemy from sweeping through the galaxy. And Earth’s defences have finally been penetrated, its giant domed cities destroyed one by one. As time runs out for civilization, those who fight on must join forces and form new alliances – but an enemy’s enemy isn’t always a friend.

The war is desperate on all fronts, with battles fought on a scale unseen by humankind for six centuries. There are rumours that an ancient space-faring race faced this same threat to its existence – surviving with the help of the Sleeping God. If this mysterious and powerful entity truly exists, we may be able to find it. And if it really can avert the ultimate catastrophe, we may at last find hope.

Joshua Clavert and Syrinx now fly their starships on a mission to find the Sleeping God – which an alien race believes holds the key to finally overthrowing the possessed.

The Naked God is the final chapter of the trilogy which began with The Reality Dysfunction and The Neutronium Alchemist.

I won't waste much time here to explain my thoughts in detail, however this was, I believe, the turning point in Peter's writing. So that means that these are the books that shattered his own preconception of what Science Fiction writing should be, and it launched him on a trajectory style all of his own.

The journey is long, so in preparation I give you two pieces of advice. 1: let the story wash over you without trying to remember all the details such as: people's names, where they are and what they doing. It will all become clear by repetition. And 2, this might just be the set of Science Fiction books that you spend the rest of your life searching to trying and better.

Enjoy.

1.2 million words of the best space trilogy I've listened to.

The hardest part of a huge book, especially one as good as this, is finishing. I didn't want it to end. It took me three weeks to complete - plus the time to get through the first two parts - that I had become accustomed to the characters. I enjoyed spending time (and space) with them and felt I knew them personally.

Hamilton does a brilliant job of tying the multitude of strands together and the ending was certainly worth the time. The whole series comes in at about 130 hours but don't let that stop you. It is time well spent.

John Lee's narration is as good as always, he is one of my favourite readers. I know I haven't mentioned the story but that's because you should have read parts 1 & 2 first so you'll know what's happening. If you don't then start from the beginning. It is certainly worth it.

Phenomenally huge sci-fi.

First book of the trilogy took a bit to get into as you learned about all the characters, but soon the picture built together and had you rooting for different characters in the story... totally loved it, and so so detailed.

Fantastic

What a feat of imagination! The author is utterly brilliant at creating this awesome space opera from the first book to the last. I couldn't have enjoyed this escapism more and loved the character driven plot. The ending exceeds all expectation as long as one suspends any cynical analysis. To have so many hours of entertainment end has left me in mourning! This was my second time of listening...even better than the first time around.

A mind blowing trilogy!
