Description

Bella Lind and her crew are at the forefront of a new gold rush in the Solar System. Their mission is to attach mass-driver motors to comets, fueling the exploitation of the system's resources.

But when one of Saturn's moons suddenly accelerates out of its orbit, the crew finds themselves trapped in a vast, alien-constructed chamber. They are not alone - each chamber contains an alien culture, dragged into this cosmic menagerie at the end of time.

The crew must navigate their way through harrying contact with ultra-advanced aliens and assimilate the knowledge about their own future, including advanced technologies that could destroy the universe in a nanosecond. Can they negotiate their way to survival, or will the avalanche of knowledge prove too much to handle?
