Mindstar Rising

In a ravaged near-future England, a private detective with psychic powers might be the last hope standing between mankind and total collapse. Mindstar Rising is the first cyberpunk thriller in Peter F. Hamiltons hugely popular Greg Mandel series. For fans of James S.A. Corey.

Its the 21st century and global warming is here to stay, so forget the way your country used to look. And get used to the free market, too – the companies possess all the best hardware, and theyre calling the shots now.

In a world like this, a man open to any offers can do just fine. A man like Greg Mandel for instance, whos psi-boosted, wired into the latest sensory equipment and carrying state-of-the-art weaponry. Hes also been part of the English Armys Mindstar Battalion.

As the cartels battle for control of a revolutionary new power source, and corporate greed outstrips national security, tension is mounting to boiling point. And Greg Mandel is about to face the ultimate test.

Mindstar Rising is followed by A Quantum Murder and The Nano Flower to complete the Greg Mandel trilogy.
