Story
Nine hundred thousand years ago, something annihilated the Amarantin civilization just as it was on the verge of discovering space flight. Now one scientist, Dan Sylveste, will stop at nothing to solve the Amarantin riddle before ancient history repeats itself. With no other resources at his disposal, Sylveste forges a dangerous alliance with the cyborg crew of the starship Nostalgia for Infinity. But as he closes in on the secret, a killer closes in on him because the Amarantin were destroyed for a reason.

Story
Belisarius is a quantum man, an engineered Homo quantus who fled the powerful insight of dangerously addictive quantum senses. He found a precarious balance as a con man, but when a client offers him untold wealth to move a squadron of warships across an enemy wormhole, he must embrace his birthright to even try. In fact, the job is so big that he'll need a crew built from all the new sub-branches of humanity. If he succeeds, he might trigger an interstellar war, but success might also point the way to the next step of Homo quantus evolution.

Story
We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

Publisher's Summary
A powerful alien force threatens humanity. Can we rise to face it? Salvation Lost is the extraordinary second volume in Peter F. Hamilton's Salvation Sequence, a high-octane adventure from the award-winning author.
Fight together - or die alone . . .
In the twenty-third century, humanity is enjoying a comparative utopia. Yet life on Earth is about to change, forever. Feriton Kane’s investigative team has discovered the worst threat ever to face mankind – and we’ve almost no time to fight back. The supposedly benign Olyix plan to harvest humanity, in order to carry us to their god at the end of the universe. And as their agents conclude schemes down on earth, vast warships converge above to gather this cargo.
Some factions push for humanity to flee, to live in hiding amongst the stars – although only a chosen few would make it out in time. But others refuse to break before the storm. As disaster looms, animosities must be set aside to focus on just one goal: wiping this enemy from the face of creation. Even if it means preparing for a future this generation will never see.
Salvation Lost is followed by the trilogy's stunning conclusion, The Saints of Salvation.

Great story, quality science fiction
The narration is exceptional. These are a quality production and I love them. Book focuses on the non space faring ‘earlier’ characters at the expense of the later future story. Still pretty great though.

Maintains the quality
I do like this author, but some of his books are exceedingly long and complex. This one is long and complex, but continues (as the first in the series did) to hold my interest. I will certainly get the third in the series.

Another good book from Hamilton
I enjoyed this more than Salvation (the first in the series) although to be fair the first half of Salvation was setting the scene and getting to know the characters. The story starts making more sense in this book and the pieces of the puzzle start falling into place as there are a lot of characters and it jumps backwards and forwards in time and sets it up nicely for the final book.
