    Wir schreiben das Jahr 2454.
    Drei Jahrhunderte des Friedens und ein hart erkämpftes goldenes Zeitalter haben ein jähes Ende gefunden. Die einst unerschütterliche Vormachtstellung der sieben großen Hives bröckelt. Korruption und Betrug haben das System unterhöhlt. Aggression und Blutdurst, die Jahrhunderte lang unterdrückt wurden, sind nun wieder entfesselt worden. Die schreckliche Wahrheit lautet, dass der ewige Frieden mit einem Geflecht aus heimlichen Morden teuer erkauft wurde. Diese Morde waren mit eiskaltem Kalkül geplant und akribisch organisiert, um das globale Gleichgewicht zu wahren. Doch nun ist das Geheimnis gelüftet, das Gleichgewicht gekippt, die utopische Fassade der Hives zerrissen. Noch vor wenigen Tagen war die Menschheit eine Zierde zivilisatorischen Fortschritts. Jetzt bereiten sich alle auf den Krieg vor.

    Mycroft Canner is a convict. For his crimes he is required, as is the custom of the 25th century, to wander the world being as useful as he can to all he meets.

    Carlyle Foster is a sensayer - a spiritual counselor in a world that has outlawed the public practice of religion, but which also knows that the inner lives of humans cannot be wished away.

    The world into which Mycroft and Carlyle have been born is as strange to our 21st-century eyes as ours would be to a native of the 1500s. It is a hard-won utopia built on technologically-generated abundance, and also on complex and mandatory systems of labeling all public writing and speech. What seem to us normal gender distinctions are now distinctly taboo in most social situations. And most of the world's population is affiliated with globe-girdling clans of the like-minded, whose endless economic and cultural competition is carefully managed by central planners of inestimable subtlety. To us it seems like a mad combination of heaven and hell. To them, it seems like normal life.

    And in this world, Mycroft and Carlyle have stumbled on the wild card that may destabilize the system: the boy Bridger, who can effortlessly make his wishes come true. Who can, it would seem, bring inanimate objects to life.

    Février 2455. Six mois ont suffi à faire voler en éclats trois siècles de prospérité. Six mois d'une guerre civile à l'échelle mondiale. Six mois au cours desquels les Ruches sont entrées en conflit ouvert. Six mois d'un black-out inquiet, où l'accès instantané à l'information et les déplacements ultrarapides n'ont plus cours. Six mois d'horreurs... et aucune perspective de paix. Dans ce monde où la technologie est si avancée que n'importe quel objet industriel peut se muer en arme de destruction massive, où voisins et membres d'une même famille peuvent appartenir à des Ruches désormais ennemies mortelles, deux grandes factions s'opposent : les pro-Ruches, brûlants de réformer ces dernières, face au dieu vivant J. E. D. D. ? Maçon et ses séides, désireux de bâtir un système plus juste mais qui ignorent encore comment. ? Tandis qu'en coulisses se joue un autre conflit crucial : celui de l'orientation future de l'humanité... Atteindre les étoiles ne serait-il plus qu'un projet chimérique?

    Długo oczekiwany ostatni tom cyklu "Terra Ignota"

    Jest rok 2454
    Przywódcy Pasiek – państw pozbawionych określonego terytorium, będących obecnie podstawową formą organizacji ludzkich społeczeństw na Ziemi – potajemnie dopuścili się straszliwych czynów, starając się zachować pozory utopijnej stabilności. Ale fasada nie może utrzymywać się bez końca. Łatwość podróżowania po całym globie oraz powszechny dostatek mogły wywrzeć łagodzący wpływ na mroczniejsze tendencje ludzkości. Niemniej konflikt pozostaje głęboko zakorzeniony w ludzkiej psychice. Katalizator, którym stał się niezwykły chłopiec, wystarczył, by na nowo obudzić tłumiony od pół tysiąclecia chaos.
    Wojna szerzy się na całym globie, niszczy dawne sojusze i budzi uśpione nienawiści. Zagrożone są wszystkie systemy transportu. Powrót tyranii odległości podważa spójność od dawna zjednoczonego świata, zagrażając wszystkiemu, co stworzył system Pasiek.
    Superzbrodniarz Mycroft Canner zaginął bez śladu, a jego następca, Dziewiąte Anonim, musi nie tylko prowadzić kronikę wojny, lecz również podjąć próbę przywrócenia porządku na świecie niepowstrzymanie zmierzającym ku katastrofie.
    Los społeczeństwa wisi na włosku. Czy rozwiązaniem będzie pozostać na Ziemi, czy raczej nadal próbować dotrzeć do gwiazd?

    SEPTEMBRE 2454.
    Tant redoutée, mais inévitable depuis plusieurs mois, la guerre est là : l’âge d’or dans lequel prospérait l’humanité depuis trois siècles a volé en éclat, à l’instar de la cité aquatique d’Atlantis, première victime du conflit. Quelques semaines plus tôt, un procès retentissant a prouvé que l’équilibre précaire qui maintenait la paix entre les Ruches, ces organismes ayant remplacé les États-nations, n’existait qu’au moyen d’une série de meurtres calculés avec précision. Il n’en fallait pas davantage pour mettre le feu aux poudres. Dans ce monde où les frontières n’existent plus, où la technologie est si avancée que n’importe quelle création industrielle peut se muer en une arme de destruction massive, où les membres d’une même famille peuvent appartenir à des Ruches désormais ennemies mortelles, la guerre est un art à réinventer. Deux camps se dessinent cependant. Ceux qui soutiennent Sniper et sa volonté de réformer les Ruches ; ceux qui soutiennent J.E.D.D. Maçon, le dieu vivant ou prétendu tel, et son ambition de rebâtir un système plus juste. Or, dans les coulisses, d’autres conflits se trament, avec comme enjeu l’accès aux étoiles…

    World Peace turns into global civil war.

    In the future, the leaders of Hive nations―nations without fixed location―clandestinely committed nefarious deeds in order to maintain an outward semblance of utopian stability. But the facade could only last so long. The comforts of effortless global travel and worldwide abundance may have tempered humanity's darkest inclinations, but conflict remains deeply rooted in the human psyche. All it needed was a catalyst, in form of special little boy to ignite half a millennium of repressed chaos.

    Now, war spreads throughout the globe, splintering old alliances and awakening sleeping enmities. All transportation systems are in ruins, causing the tyranny of distance to fracture a long-united Earth and threaten to obliterate everything the Hive system built.

    With the arch-criminal Mycroft nowhere to be found, his successor, Ninth Anonymous, must not only chronicle the discord of war, but attempt to restore order in a world spiraling closer to irreparable ruin.

    The fate of a broken society hangs in the balance. Is the key to salvation to remain Earth-bound or, perhaps, to start anew throughout the far reaches of the stars?

    In einer Zukunft, in der man fast augenblicklich um die ganze Welt reisen kann, in der alle Bedürfnisse problemlos gestillt werden und in der sich niemand mehr an einen echten Krieg erinnern kann, droht eine lange Ära der Stabilität zu einem abrupten Ende zu kommen. Nur wenige wissen, dass sich die Anführer der großen Hives schon längst darauf verständig haben, die Stabilität der Welt auf Kosten von etwas Blut zu gewährleisten. Ein paar mathematisch präzise geplante Morde sorgen dafür, dass keine Fraktion jemals die Oberhand gewinnen kann und das zerbrechliche Gleichgewicht erhalten bleibt. Doch genau dieses gerät nun ins Wanken. M ycroft Canner, der dazu verurteilt wurde, im Dienste aller Hives um den Globus zu wandern, weiß mehr über diese Verschwörung, als er je zugeben kann.

    Année 2454.
    Dix milliards d'êtres humains se répartissent en sept Ruches ayant remplacé les États-nations d'antan. Paix, loisirs, prospérité et abondance définissent ce XXVe siècle aux atours d'utopie. Pourtant, l'âge d'or dans lequel baigne l'humanité depuis trois cents ans touche peut-être à sa fin. Les Ruches coexistent selon un équilibre plus fragile que n'importe qui l'aurait cru, et seule une série de meurtres calculés avec précision maintient le statu quo politique.

    Le ver est dans le fruit, et avec lui la pourriture... Que faire ? Laisser perdurer l'inacceptable au bénéfice d'une paix de plus en plus friable ? Ou tout réformer ? Mycroft Canner, criminel condamné à une vie de servitude et confident des puissants, a en main l'atout à même de créer, pour peu que l'occasion se présente, les conditions d'un monde infiniment meilleur pour tous et à jamais. Un atout qui, s'il était mal utilisé, pourrait pourtant réduire en pièces tout ce qui existe...

    Année 2454. Trois siècles après des évènements meurtriers ayant remodelé la société, les concepts d'État-nation et de religion organisée ont disparu. Dix milliards d'êtres humains se répartissent ainsi par affinités, au sein de sept Ruches aux ambitions distinctes. Paix, loisirs, prospérité et abondance définissent ce XXVe siècle radieux aux atours d'utopie. Qui repose toutefois sur un équilibre fragile. Et Mycroft Canner le sait mieux que personne... Coupable de crimes atroces, condamné à une servitude perpétuelle mais confident des puissants, il lui faut enquêter sur le vol d'un document crucial : la liste des dix principaux influenceurs mondiaux, dont la publication annuelle ajuste les rapports de force entre les Ruches. Surtout, Mycroft protège un secret propre à tout ébranler : un garçonnet aux pouvoirs uniques, quasi divins. Or, dans un monde ayant banni l'idée même de Dieu, comment accepter la survenue d'un miracle ?

    The long years of near-utopia have come to an abrupt end. Peace and order are now figments of the past. Corruption, deception, and insurgency hum within the once steadfast leadership of the Hives, nations without fixed location.

    The heartbreaking truth is that for decades, even centuries, the leaders of the great Hives bought the world's stability with a trickle of secret murders, mathematically planned. So that no faction could ever dominate. So that the balance held. The Hives' facade of solidity is the only hope they have for maintaining a semblance of order, for preventing the public from succumbing to the savagery and bloodlust of wars past. But as the great secret becomes more and more widely known, that facade is slipping away.

    Just days earlier, the world was a pinnacle of human civilization. Now everyone - Hives and hiveless, Utopians and sensayers, emperors and the downtrodden, warriors and saints - scrambles to prepare for the seemingly inevitable war.
