Following the emergence of a menacing dark presence that scourged the galaxy, Aurola, a low-level diplomat from Terra Secundus, embarks on a quest to find an elusive Neana sphere. Under cryptic guidance of godlike Neana, her path leads to Samvedi, where she's introduced to the mesmerizing practice of conscious creation known as "efflorescence" and meets Eidolon 'Tis. Together, they board the Paradigm, where they are joined by the wayfinder O:Six, the easygoing plasma-based sentinel KILO, and the astute AnunA Inna. The Odyssean journey takes them through seven rings of the Chams, is closely accompanied by equally riveting ones leading them inwards, all the way to the climactic unshrouding of truth that is as much personal as it is universal.
On a more personal level, Entropy is an homage to all the great sci-fi that captured and shaped my imagination while growing up. It was originally envisioned as a feel-good sci-fi book, a journey of self-reflection and self-discovery set in a future that manages to remain light and optimistic despite impending danger and seemingly insurmountable challenges. But above all, Entropy is a story about wonderment, and about striving to keep on wondering no matter how grown up we become.
