Unfortunately, the Conjoiners' space exploration has attracted the notice of an ancient swarm of machines that calls itself the Inhibitors and that exists to destroy all biological intelligence. Late in the 26th century, the group-mind Conjoiners are defeating their main rivals, the Demarchists. Spreading from star to star, humanity has split into different, competing factions. With this complex, thoughtful sequel to his highly praised Revelation Space (2001), British author Reynolds confirms his place among the leaders of the hard-science space-opera renaissance.

Redemption Ark is a treatise on the dangers of the kind of closed-minded thinking which plagues our world today' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'It's a well-written mix of sci-fi, horror, suspense, and mystery. Big ideas, a gigantic story, and a sincerely massive and awesome finale' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ one thing that is cool about this series is that I'm three books in and while there is a overall larger story being told each one is totally self-contained.

'Better and even darker than the previous one. ' An exceptional, incomparable read' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Readers are hooked on the Revelation Space series: Big in size, big in concepts, REDEMPTION ARK will leave you gasping at its audacity and breathless at its conclusion. Once again, Al Reynolds has produced a stunning, universe-spanning space opera of mind-blowing proportions. Whatever they are building with those materials is not going to be good for Humanity. On Yellowstone, where no one is quite who they appear, the Inquisitor and the planet's Most Wanted War Criminal are watching as the Inhibitors turn a small group of planets into raw materials. Then Dr Dan Sylveste and the crew of Infinity discovered what had happened to the long-vanished Amarantin race.

But after hundreds of millions of years, the machines started to fail and intelligent cultures started to emerge. Many, many millennia ago, the Inhibitors seeded the universe with machines designed to detect intelligent life - and then to suppress it. The Inhibitors are back and Humanity is doomed!
