As the final book in a series, ABSOLUTION GAP will be more meaningful to those grounded in the earlier books. The plot is set in Ararat and Hela, in three time periods in the future. The human race is at risk of being destroyed by technology. Will a savior appear? John Lee makes his way steadily through long passages of explication. He rises to the challenge of presenting a broad cast of characters in a complex universe and maintains his stamina throughout the long book. His skills include a range of accents and characterizations distinguished by tone and texture. His judicious pace conveys emotion and the personal dynamics between the characters.

Mankind has endured centuries of horrific plague and a particularly brutal interstellar war.but there is still no time for peace and quiet.Stirred from aeons of sleep, the Inhibitors - ancient alien killing machines - have begun the process of ridding the galaxy of its latest emergent intelligence: mankind. As a ragtag bag of refugees fleeing the first wave of the cull head towards an apparently insignificant moon light-years away, they discover an avenging angel, a girl born in ice. She has the power to lead mankind to safety and the ability to draw down their darkest enemy.And on a planet where vast travelling cathedrals crawl towards the treacherous fissure known as Absolution Gap, an unsettling truth becomes apparent: to beat one enemy, it may be necessary to forge an alliance with something much, much worse. Take another awe-inspiring leap into the darkly imagined future of REVELATION SPACE, where it is time for Humanity to meet its Unmakers.
