Omega is a book by Jack McDevitt that won the John W. Campbell Award, and was nominated for the Nebula Award in 2004.[1]

The mystery surrounding the destructive "Omega Clouds" (which are introduced in The Engines of God) is left unexplored until Omega.[2]

Plot summary

A world of strikingly humanoid beings is discovered to be in the path of an Omega cloud, which attack and destroy anything with a sharp corner. The beings' civilization is strikingly similar to the early Greeks. Hutch is part of an expedition to save them if possible, using a new discovery.
