Synopsis
Greg Mandel, late of the Mindstar Battalion, has been many things in his life. Commando. Freedom fighter. Assassin. Now he's a freelance operative with a very special edge: telepathy. In the high-tech, hard-edged world of tomorrow, Mandel is the man to call when things get rough, but this time he may have bitten off more than he can chew....
Decades of global warming have changed the geography of the world, altered climates, and wreaked havoc on lives and economies. Now, after decades of hardship and turmoil, the world is beginning to pull itself back together, thanks in large part to the efforts of one man: Philip Evans. A visionary industrialist, Evans is the head of Event Horizon, an organization on the cutting edge of everything from zero-gravity manufacturing to artificial intelligence. But now someone is trying to sabotage Event Horizon - and kill Philip Evans.
Hired to find the saboteur, Greg Mandel must cut his way through a treacherous maze of corporate intrigue and startling new scientific developments. And nothing less than the future is at stake.

Review
"Peter F. Hamilton manages a very neat trick, combining deft scientific and social speculations with the page-turning appeal of the best thrillers." --Tad Williams ""Mindstar Rising "is more than a taut, suspenseful story--it's intellectually exciting as well, its future world full of surprises." --Poul Anderson "An assured, effective debut from a writer to watch." --"Kirkus Reviews" (pointer review)
