About this listen
The Fermi are awake.
With the invention of faster-than-light travel there is nowhere that humanity cannot go. New worlds are discovered, but with them come new dangers.
At the heart of the discovery is the Fermi, mysterious beings that have survived on alien worlds for longer than humanity has existed. But now the Fermi are awakening, and they do not seem pleased to find humans in their midst.
But for Lakshmi Nayak and the crew of the Fighting Chance, danger is a lot closer to home. Their search for answers will take them to places, and worlds, they never expected.
Science fiction legend Ken MacLeod returns with book two in the Lightspeed trilogy, a gripping tale of first contact and dark conspiracies set among the stars.

"An exceptional blend of international politics, hard science, and first contact." (Michael Mammay, author of Planetside)
"MacLeod is up there with Banks and Hamilton as one of the British sci-fi authors you absolutely have to read." (SFX)
"Science fiction's freshest new writer... MacLeod is a fiercely intelligent, prodigiously well-read author who manages to fill his books with big issues without weighing them down." (Salon)
