The first part of the epic Commonwealth Saga, Pandora's Star by Peter F. Hamilton is a fantastic galaxy-spanning novel from the master of space opera. Earth AD 2329: Humanity has colonized over four hundred planets, all interlinked by wormholes. For the first time in mankind's history there is peace. Then a star over a thousand light years away suddenly vanishes, imprisoned inside a force field of immense size. Only a faster-than-light starship, captained by ex-NASA astronaut Wilson Kime, can reach that distance to investigate. But there was a good reason for sealing off an entire star system. And getting in may not be as difficult as stopping something from getting out . . . The Commonwealth Saga concludes with Judas Unchained.

Pandora's Star- good read
I read this series in reverse. I started with the Temporal Void, then read the Dreaming Void and then went on to Pandora's Star. To stay out of phase, I should have read Judas Unchained first.
I really enjoyed living inside these books. The characters are well developed and you build a relationship with them. The themes are rich and intricate. If you don't like keeping track of a slew of characters and multiple plots, don't read these books.
