The Confederation Handbook by Peter F. Hamilton

Description: Peter F Hamilton's bestselling 'Night's Dawn Trilogy' has been one of the most triumphant works of science fiction to appear in decades. Swiftly gathering a worldwide readership, this masterwork of cosmic imagination and sheer storytelling amounts to over 3,7000 pages (or 1,200,000 words) in total, and has brought to life an entire galaxy of diverse planets and astonishing civilisations.

At the core of this magnificent creation is the Confederation itself: an assembly of human and xenoc colony worlds and asteroid settlements whose cultures and conflicts and turmoils are described over a time line of nearly 600 years.

To mark the completion of this awesome trilogy, Peter F Hamilton has produced The Confederation Handbook as an essential companion guide to the diverse elements of the massive universe he has created. Here we have his personal exposition of Adamist culture, Edenist culture, the starships, the status of the Confederation in 2610, a description of sentient xenoc species, as well as a full list of characters and their roles, and , of course, details of the Timeline itself.
