While approaching an asteroid-sized iceberg (the ship is almost out of water), those who are not satisfied with the current government stage a takeover attempt. It is put down, but with many casualties. On the other side of a nearby gas giant planet, the humans just happen to find a wormhole. At the other end of that wormhole is the interstellar equivalent of the United Nations. It is an immense space structure, so old that no one knows who built it, and home to thousands of beings. The humans are welcomed as new members of the Bastion.
The area is the hub of many different wormholes. A derelict ship comes through a wormhole that hasn’t been used in several hundred years. Further investigation shows that it is infested with sentient tendrils that can easily survive in deep space. They can eat through metal, and they live on electrical energy. The tendrils are controlling the ship, because destroying it takes a couple of attempts. A sample of a tendril is analyzed; it seems to be almost indestructible. Later, the sample is taken back through the wormhole and released, just to see what happens. It turns out to be a really bad idea.
This novel is surprisingly good. It helps that it is Part 1 of a series; I look forward to reading the rest of it. This story has it all; humans looking for a new home, deep space, an alien confederation, good characters and hideous alien invaders. It is also a very fast read. Yes, this is really worth the time.… (meer)
