Void trilogy who is aaron
I'm almost done with the second book, should finish it in the next day or two. Very much enjoying the series, but wishing that I could remember the Starflyer war books better. Oh, and the Edeard stuff better have one heck of a pay-off considering the amount of pages it takes up. Hamilton really seems to enjoy playing with the super-advanced technology his humans have in the series. Caliburn24 , Jan 21, Joined: Mar 22, Location: America. I've read the first two.
Lookingglassman , Jan 21, Joined: Oct 19, Location: Lat: Wonderful series. This trilogy takes place after the events in the Commonwealth books Pandora's Star and Judas Unchained. I highly recommend those, as well. I bought the book on a whim and didn't realize it was only the first part until I reached the end.
Then I rushed out and bought the second book, only to discover it was part of a trilogy and the third book was still months away from release. A skylord is seen gliding above a solid planet, with energy swirling around it. As it hovers there, it begins to gather the energy into itself and starts to lower down into the atmosphere of the planet.
At this exact moment, Conservator Ethan is going to attempt to talk to the Second Dreamer. He has waited for this moment since finding out that the dreamer only dreams after orgasm. I am me! Araminta wakes with a gasp, surrounded by the naked bodies of those she has slept with. She thinks on this dream she had of a celestial being hovering over a planet and how she felt suffocated by the sudden presence of a second person in the dream.
Lying there she reflects on the night before and the orgy she took part in. Noticing that Likan was worshipped by the women around him as they did everything he wanted, Araminta believes that he has brain washed the harem and she is next. Leaving in a fit of anger, she travels home.
He returns to the place where he had a hand in the Starflyer war, where he killed and died before being imprisoned. He knows that he must deliver a passcode to someone on this planet if he should ever be in need of help. Once the code is delivered he is approached by a man claiming to be part of a group called The Knights Guardian. In the hundreds of years it was out of contact, its views changed. As villainous as its originator, the Starflyer is more devious, and now counts MorningLightMountain on its kill list; to that end, it successfully manipulates humanity and the Primes into what it hopes will be a war of mutual annihilation.
He's actually Lennox Mc Foster , son of Bruce from the Commonwealth Saga , although considering what's happened to him it's anybody's guess whether he can really be called Lennox anymore.

Evil Twin : After Dudley's loss at the Dyson Pair and subsequent re-life, there are two versions of him - the re-life clone, who's immature and unlikeable albeit in a rather tragic way , and the Bose motile, which may well be Dudley's continuing original consciousness housed in a Prime motile, which is a very alien neurochemistry for a human mind, giving it a rather different outlook.
Fire-Forged Friends With Benefits : How Dudley and Mellanie's relationship can be summed up, as they both survived the Prime invasion though Mellanie also has an ulterior motive for working with Dudley.
Morality Pet : Dudley, usually unintentionally, brings out Mellanie's better qualities. Gore Burnelli. In the midst century, Gore was a corporate executive. It's outright stated that being post-physical is so different that post-physicals don't talk with humans. Gore is not seen again after his elevation. Killed Off for Real : Arguably. Gore in his original body goes post-physical using the Anomine elevation mechanism. The sequence is written in the terms one might use to describe death "after a while, he was gone" and Justine certainly reacts as if he were dead, mourning for him.
However, Gore's ANA personality remains active. Whether Gore has died is a heavily metaphysical question. Justine Burnelli. Adam Elvin. A pessimistic, cynical arms dealer and quartermaster of the Guardians of Selfhood. LionWalker Eyre. Sequel Hook : LionWalker has been weaving in and out of the Commonwealth Universe narrative since the start of Pandora's Star , but he's apparently never affected anything big and his overall importance remains uncertain.
Hoshe Finn. The High Angel. A sentient alien starship. It was built by the Raiel as a lifeboat in case the galaxy were to be consumed by the Void. Instead, it serves mainly as a routing and information system similar to human software, deferring real decisions and communication to Captain Qatux. Living Ship : It's either this or a very advanced alien AI. Ozzie Fernandez Isaacs.
With Nigel Sheldon, co-inventor of wormhole technology. Audience Surrogate : Ozzie and Nigel were both born in the early 21st century, and while they don't make much overt reference to it, their attitudes are relatively close to the 21st-century mainstream in certain ways. For instance Ozzie, as well as Wilson Kime, considers re-life philosophically unsound, and sees bodyloss as actual, permanent death - most Commonwealthers believe someone is only dead if they die without a usable backup.
The comparison is all but made at one point. If anything could be said about The Dreaming Void, and the Void Trilogy in general, is that it exists because of one person: Edeard. While the early Dreams we see are fairly simple, showing life out on the far reaches of civilisation, events occur that shows not all is as it seems. From the attack on the hunting party to the downfall of Ashwell, trouble is stirring on Querencia. Edeard is a good person, with his youth and innocence guiding him throughout The Dreaming Void.
In fact, during their first meeting Grand Master Finitan tells him:. It may attract the wrong kind of interest.
Politics, remember? It is during this discussion that Edeard turns his back on Eggshaping, and instead moves into the life of a constable on the streets of Makkathran. The strength and determination Edeard has becomes more apparent as the story unfolds.
