There was a book called "The Ring of Charon" by Roger MacBride Allen, which I read in the early '90s. It was supposed to be the start of a series, and it was a stunningly ambitious piece of work. A couple of centuries in the future, an experiment on Pluto's moon accidentally triggers dormant alien machinery, which ganks Earth away through a wormhole and starts disassembling the rest of the (inhabited) Solar System. Apparently one further volume was published a few years later, but it was never available in the UK, and the series has been missing in action ever since.
