Review: EXODUS: THE ARCHIMEDES ENGINE (BECOME THE TRAVELER) by Peter F. Hamilton

Release September 17 2024

I am awestruck at the vast capacity of the imagination of SF author Peter F. Hamilton. The breadth and depth of his World Building, multilayered and multicultural, the depth of Far-Future Scientific achievements, Genetic Engineering, Transhumans, effective immortality through transmission of Consciousness...an amazing 928 pages, engrossing, intriguing, highly suspenseful, yet peopled with characters both comprehensible and beyond our current comprehension.

Forty thousand years into the Future: can you imagine? Peter F. Hamilton can, and brings this Future vividly to his readers.

First in a duology: so anticipating the next novel!!!

Distinctly a Best of 2024 and of this decade!
